Old motorcyclist trick for lubing cables:
Disconect the cable
In one corner of a heavy duty baggie, cut a small hole just large enough to
insert the cable end and a short section of the outer sheath (about 1/2 in)
Tape the baggie firmly around the sheath and pour about 2 Oz. of your
favorite liquid lubricant into the baggie
Tie up the baggie and cable in a vertical position (BAGGIE ON TOP) over a
catch cane.
Go have a beer or two and wait til the lubricant runs out the bottom.
Depending on the viscosity of the lubricant, ambient temp, etc. you may need
another beer.
Cable is greased
