Just make sure that whatever you lube the plunger with is 
compatible with rubber.  I got something into a solder sucker 
once and the o-ring plunger seal absorbed it and grew and jammed 
up the solder sucker.  When I finally got it pulled apart, I 
found that the o-ring looked perfectly normal, but was now about 
1/8 inch larger in diameter than it used to be.
