Masc,

Did you clean all of the components of the delivery valve assembly (Spring, valve, little thingy under Spring inside hollowed out cylinder thingy (pardon the technical jargon)? I may try soaking all of these parts. I don't need the car anyway for at least a couple of weeks. I just want it running again.
Also, did you label which parts go with what, so as not to mix up the components of the various assemblies?
