My bicycle pump is probably more than 10 years old and feels like its sort of sticky with a bit of internal friction. This pump is made out of metal and has a wooden handle. I've taken apart the pump and the seal (rubber ring) still looks good. I use this pump to fill air in both bike and car tires.
I sprayed some WD-40 inside the pump cylinder and its smoother but doesn't seem to stay lubricated for a long time. I'm thinking of putting a little bit of grease in there such as Park Tool PolyLube. Any suggestions? Thanks.
