so the releases for the engine bay and the hood are a little, no really, tough to pull. in particular the hood release. is there an easy way to grease up those cables and holes or do you need to actually pull the cables or replace them. the cables look good everywhere i can see them. just feel kinda stuck.

Harbor freight has a cable lubber, just like the one i bought at the motorcycle shop. Think it was 5 bucks there and 15 at the MC shop. It clamps around the cable and has a hole to shoot lube through the cable. Just wrap a rag around it when you do it, they are a little messy. I like tri-flow for cables, since it rinses then turn in to more of a dry lube. |
