Remove the handles to expose the innards and use a dry graphite spray lube.

TriFlow spray lube always works well for me.

Remove the knobs and striker, inspect for proper alignment or damage, lubricate or replace worn striker.
Any free advice given is worth double price paid.

A good long lasting lube that is a little thicker to stay in place on internal parts is- Tap Magic. I've used it and it tends to stick around much longer than any spray or thin oil.
