just a suggestion.  Might want to take a very light grit sandpaper to the chamber and piston assembly to wipe off any grinding areas so as to ensure the lubrication isn't just temporary.

I removed the suction chambers and separated the piston/needle from the suction chamber. I used WD40 to wipe the sliding surfaces between the piston/needle and the suction chamber. It did not seem pitted but the surface definitely had rust impeding the movement. After a slight rub down and reassembly, it started right up, first turn of the key. Now, the “inquiring minds want to know” part, why would it start when one plug was removed?
