[C320-list] FW: Re: Gear Box Cable

[Karl Mielenhausen _/)]

>From the Edson literature...



ENGINE CONTROLS MAINTENANCE

Oil the control handle shaft bearings with #30 motor oil. Use a good

grade of Teflon spray with an extender nozzle for the pedestal end of

the engine control push/pull cables.

At the engine, clean off the control cable metal ends and spray

with Teflon grease. This will increase cable life and make operation

easier. Engine cables are subject to high heat from the transmission,

and salty bilge water, both very hard on moving parts. If stiff, replace.

Note: Lubricate all connecting pivot pins.



Hope this helps.

Some time over the winter my throttle cable froze up.  Now it will  barely move.  What kind of lubicant did you use?************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
