#1 sleeve set and #5 sleeve set aren't connected except by the camshaft, so I have no idea why you get more fuel when #5 is open.

Sounds like your #1 plunger spring is broken, so the plunger stays up instead of re-filling with fuel for the next injection. Not an expensive fix, but the pump does have to come apart!
