Tip would be to run to the store and spend 4 bucks to replace it.
Puncture and use what is needed and then run to the store and spend 4 bucks to replace it.

Try lightly heating it with a lighter. I will heat around the tip and then as it softens I insert a needle to help get the glue flowing.

Going to plan B.going to bow shop next week and get some carbons cut.getting a new bottle of glue.pouring old bottle in a cup and q tip it on the insert till its used up.should work.

tip 1) use Stanley Brand S hot melt for inserts
tip 2), clean tip of instant glue prior to placing cap on bottle, then store upright in fridge

If it's that old, I wouldn't use it. Trick is, get the Gorilla Super Glue gel in the small tubes, it's plasticized and very impact resistant. And one of the little tubes will do inserts and vanes for a dozen arrows with a little left over. That way you don't have a bottle sitting around going bad over time.
