So today I received a delivery of a Black Aerometric Parker 51 that I found for sale on FPN. It said that the pen was in good condition and worked well. I get it, it does look good, I flush it out with some warm water, load it with Noodler's Heart of Darkness and it barely writes. Skipping isn't the word, it just doesn't seen to write. I don't think the listing said it was restored.
So, for you more experienced guys out there, what should I do? I like the pen, and would love to have it in working order. Should I look for a replacement nib or does someone know a trick to get these to work?
