Good plan.

I bought a bag of 10 or a dozen several years ago then some "pump blood" from Silca awhile back, used mineral oil before and now don't replace every seal without cleaning and lubing to see how they do but I've never not been able to make one work way better and plenty usable that can always get you home.
