I've used the West Marine head lube with success. The joker valve on my W-C head was acting up and, at the advice of some of the listers, instead of a new head or rebuild kit, I went with the lube. It worked.... and is still working.

Perhaps one of the dedicated head lubes would be the ticket.

Mine was out of use for a while and appears to work, but squeaks a bit and feels stiff.
