Have a Vespa P200E, the oil injection arm is stiff and sometimes gets hung up. I took the pump apart and the oil cap arm springs back as it should. The gear moves freely. I think the spring under the gear is causing the arm to bind up. Could that be it? What do y'all use for lubricant in this area?

Sometimes the lever gets bent a little and gets hung up. Get a good look at it and see if it is catching anywhere and bend accordingly.
