<VV> VirtualVairs Digest, Vol 81, Issue 107

[Eric S. Eberhard]

Spray graphite (I get mine at NAPA).  It is liquid but I think the 
liquid quickly goes away.  I clean my housing out with brake cleaning 
fluid and then spray this in.  You disconnect at the rear, remove the 
cable, disconnect from the speedo, put a drop cloth on your floor, 
and use the little red skinny spray tubes ... shove them as far as 
you can down the hole and spray till it comes out the rear.  Wait 10 
minutes after the brake cleaner (it will be dry then and leaves no 
residue).  Wait 10 minutes after the graphite to insert cable (it 
won't be dry).  After the cable is 90% inserted, re-attach the rear 
(I find it easier this was).  Then finish with the cable.  Might have 
to giggle it around to get it to seat.  Eric
