Speedo cable

[Dave E]

What type of lubrication do I use on my speedo cable? How about the speedo itself?

i have had good luck with white lithium grease, you can get it in spray or tube. i am sure others will chime in.

I have used all purpose to no ill effect. I guess they make speedo cable grease as well.

i either use white lithium or motorcycle chain lube.

I would have to discurage the motorcycle cain lube, it has a tendancy to be sticky and may cause lag to the dial. Regular usage of a lightweight lube or oil on a monthy basis can help the issue, lithum greese is good if you pull the entire line lube it and re-install it.

KY is always a good choice!

Accel cable is about the only place I WOULD use white grease. I steer clear of it on all chassis parts.

Graphite is my way to go because it is a dry lubricant--no gooing or stickiness.
