As many friends here, I was suffering overheating problems in the rep2 extruder mod downloaded from thingiverse. This heat causes a deformation in the extruder pieces and the system starts to lose strength and print worse with time.
Bored about this problem (I replinted 4 or 5 extruder mods) I decided to design an easy and cheap way to replace the extruder with same printing results as a new extruder mod but with no deformations due overheating.
I bought a plunger from farnell:

and I used an spring from vanel I had at home:

I redesigned the extruder system to fit the spring and used the ball (only the ball) from the plunger bought in farnell.
As the spring was longer than needed I had to increase 2mm the size of the "casing" but as there was space it was no problem.
It work
