I got tired of not being able to lock the car with the key without worrying I'd break off the key in the lock. Cleaned it up and lubed it and now it locks and un-locks "like butta". Does anyone actually use carb cleaner to clean carbs with? I'll do the other side tomorrow.

Thanks so much for the post. Was able to get to the root of my sticky door lock with this post. Before it took brute strength just to lift the door lock from the inside, forget about the key lock. I used the suggested carb cleaner and now both inside door and key lock work like a champ. 914world really rocks!!!
