Check out the AGD Online store...there should be feed plugs in there for sale! :D

Loose as in it's really easy for it to jiggle around in the PF tube and turn around?

If that's the case, replace the o-ring or there might just be some oil on it and and inside of the mainbody. Use a towel and dry it off really well and inside off the mainbody. Get those parts as dry as possible to make it have as much friction as possible so it doesn't move around as easily. If you need to replace the o-ring, you can get the same o-ring off ANY AGD PF plug.

Yes it will spin easily. This may be a silly question but is the O-ring the same as on a CO2 bottle?

No, it is much thicker and wider.

Will I find the necessary o-ring in a parts kit?

No, it's not in the parts kit, you can, however, take the o-ring out and go to an automotive parts store and match it with a new one!! Hope this helps!!

or you can ghetto it up by taking off the oring and wrapping tape around the plug in the oring slot, then replace the oring and it should be a better fit..

toymyster- Great advice. Bought 5 O-Rings from PepBoys and it worked like a charm.
