Greasing throttle and shift cables
Boat is a '99
cables have never been greased. Extcept for the fitting back on the transom The shift cables seem to be binding up. Especially in reverse :( Give me the best, most effecient way to lube them. I have a cable luber that I have used on the motorcycle and Atv cables. Do these the same way? Or should I just replace them? |
Re: Greasing throttle and shift cables
Replace the cables. Greasing marine cables is not a good idea. Most marine throttle and shift cables have a teflon insert. When you mix grease with teflon it will swell and cause more of a problem than when you started.
