If you are not familiar with Esterbrook fountain pens, check out
Bottom line is Esterbrook fountain pens were made during the middle years of the 20th century and have held up very well. They come in a variety of colors, several sizes, and have easily swapped nibs. Since the nibs unscrew, Esties are extremely easy to clean even though they are lever-fillers. Pop out the nib and rinse. It’s as simple as that.
Here is what I discovered this week when I finally got my hands on another Estie and just happened to set up two 9128 flexible extra-fine nibs at the same time. . .

Freaky. I just came from that Inkophile entry where I posted a comment about my limited 9128 experience. It's the one about how my nib seems to have loosened up with use. I'm pretty sure I haven't cracked it anywhere. :)
I'm new to repairing pens, so I can't give you much in advice. However, since the nibs screw in and out easily, you might try putting in another nib and see how that works.
