This is the reason why the TOST release has a nominal TBO of 2,000 tows
(i.e. 10,000 cycles to the spring). Send it in to be services and be
happy for another 2.000 tows...

Well, this TOST hookup was replaced about 100 tows ago.

Looks like there was dirt that got into the sleeve that housed the
release cable. Where do you order a new one of these? Time for a new
one.
