When JC Auto repaired the tach for my G, I asked about lubrication for the drive cable. I was told to use ATF, as it didn’t gum up and was good at low temps, so that’s what I did, and now I use it for speedo cables too.

People here are talking about the one that pulls out I think ... by the way , graphite lube seems not to work well imho long term , causes drag , noise and gear failure and speedo jump . I string it up ( whole cable ) and run Mobil 10-30 down it leave hanging a week . No more problems . Like white grease , a lot of these things I think are marketing scams ; no doubt the Mobil picks up some graphite , but oil won’t get hard. For non believers , why the noise , jumping and worn gears.. ?? “ Lubed with graphite. “. Also bearing fitting at speedo head inlet crucial to keep oiled (not grease ) ; factory grease there turns to tar .. Sent from my iPhone not by choice
