AAA,

I don't know if emery cloth is the best tool for that job.  I would 
think that a business card, to clean off particles or contaminants, or a 
"points file" to get a new surface.  The "one click" sounds like it is 
in the points system, or maybe the mechanical portion of the 
electro-magnetic diaphragm area is binding.

There are LOTS of sources for SU pumps. parts, and service on Goggle 
search for "SU Fuel Pump"

Here is a link with a lot of info.    
http://homepages.donobi.net/sufuelpumps/sufuelpumparticles.html

They offer an overhaul for $55 + parts and shipping.  I cannot recommend 
them because I have never used their services.

Rick, at SS, could probably connect you with a service he trusts.

Good Luck,

Steve
