If for some reason you want to save the original part you can try to find a long old style choke cable and remove the very stiff inner wiire and.try running that through the line. That wire can be forced through the line by holding it with a vice grip you can even tap the vice grip with a small hammer as needed. The end of the referenced wire can be used with either a sharp pointed or rounded off end. What ever works best. GOOD LUCK
