Tumblers working and trucks all back together

I took the tumbler and stuck a pic in a hole in the bottom and messed with it and the key and all of a sudden it worked, just kept insert and work key and crap was oozing out of it as i did lube it a few days ago

So i then soaked and flushed the inside with brake clean, the tumbler never worked so smooooooth

Best we can figure is either there was a burr on the new key or some crud got in there from the keys , if it happens again i need to find someone that can get this apart to fix it internaly



My other thought is having it flipped allowed the lube into an area it could not get into normally
