Steve My Honda dealer sold one of those to me years ago and recommended Tri Flow lubricant. It is the best and lasts a long time. It worked the best on my Suburban rear doors. Many people are using it for gun maintenance. You have the best videos. Thank you.

Thanks to you Steve they have sold out.. 😂 hopefully they give you some credit.

I've been a mechanic for 37 years and had no idea this tool existed, though if I thought about it, I would assume someone invented it already. This is gonna change things for me not just for lawnmower cables, but bicycles, too. Reading what I just typed embarrasses me, but live and learn. Thanks, Steve.

Love it. What cable lube do you recommend Steve? Thank you.

Love these. But it's worth mentioning that there are some lubricants that actually swell the plastic liner and hence damage cable. It's quite rare and can't recall the product, but I ruined one cable in short time because of that. Now I tend to use stuff like PTFE lubricants that don't affect plastics. So all-in-all. Remember that some oils can degrade some plastics fast.

@stevemorris3710

11 ай бұрын

WD40 maybe, that destroys plastics, and is terrible as a lubricant anyhow.

I worked at a Honda motorcycle dealership back in the 70’s. All the mechanics had one of these in their toolbox. Worked great on throttle and clutch cables.

I have one of those that is over 40 yrs old. It helps to spray a lot of lube in there to flush out the dirt & grit.

Neet little tool . I used to do the same kind of thing 35 years ago with my dirt bike cabled but I used half a tennis ball with a small hole in the bottom of the bowl , poke the cable through fill it with light oil and hang it in the vice overnight to drip through.

The wife has banded me from ever buying anymore tools until I have used up all the one I have.
