Unfortunatly, MY FLAPS had never heard of cable lube.  They said, "spray it
with WD-40", but, I might have some Lubriplate.  Doesn't sound like the
inner cable necessarily needs lubrication...right?
Thanks, Paul

Stop by your local parts store and buy some cable lube.  It is a graphite
based product that comes in a small tube and has a liquid consistency.  When
I lube a cable I pull the cable back into the housing far enough to allow a
25G syringe needle in to the housing.  I draw the lube up into the syringe
and inject 1/2 - 1 Ml. into the housing.  Works like a charm.


Best regards,Tom
