However, is there a way to fix a stiff tap? Likely the seals have dried out. Will fuel correct this or perhaps silicone grease? I don't want to find out that a solution didn't work, as the tap is in the foot well above the starter.

I Piper Cubs etc there has been a long history of adding some Marvel Mystery Oil to the fuel to lubricate the brass taps. Might be a good plan for an A7, too.
