Auxiliary Air Valve....Repair or Replace? 200

My daughter's 76 244 has a non opening auxiliary air valve.

It will open easily enough with the help of a small screwdriver. With the adjustment of the small nut it stays open to a small crescent moon shape. However once reinstalled and the car started, it closes and remains closed. Hence cold starts require plenty of accelerator assistance.

I'm hoping my daughter can keep the car for the remaining four years of her uni course. Is it a case of outlaying the $77Aus to buy new.

Thankyou in advance for all advice.
