You could always replace the momentary switch with one of these:

Bot that requires modifying the case. Otherwise you will have to replace it with one of these:

I have a 60's fuzz that I have to replace that switch on. I tried cleaning it out and it didn't work, then I tried taking it apart to clean it out and I got a headache trying to put it back together. There is a tiny tiny spring inside that is impossible to get coiled back up and put back into place. I'd have fixed it a long time ago but it's not that great of a pedal. Every time I use it, I sound just like Mark Arm.
Why should we buy postage stamps? We can make our own.

Yeah, banzaieffects has those switches too,  now everything depends from the owner..changing that will be a pain tough
Architecture students are like virgins with an itch they cannot scratch,  never build a building 'till are fifty, what kind of life is that?
