Thanks for the suggestion. I thought about that as I cleaned it up but =
was leery of making it worse.

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.

Problem solved. Thanks to everyone that contributed =E2=80=93 and there =
were many of you. After the air cleaners were removed and I attempted to =
lift the pistons, neither one would budge! 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 =E2=80=9Cinquiring =
minds want to know=E2=80=9D part, why would it start when one plug was =
removed?

Again, you guys are the best. Thanks for your help.
