I Don't Know What Kind of Grease Is He Talking About.....As I Know...That Specific Part Usually Runs Plain....(No Lube) ..Maybe You Won't Get What I Am Talking About
As We Live In Pakistan Not Some USA Europe Where They Have Clean Streets....We Have Dusty Air And Streets.....+ Humid Air
Result...Even Grease Catches Dirt And With Heat And All.....Becomes GUNK....! Maybe In Your Case Its Something Else But It Works Every time For Me.....
Being From Karachi...We Always Have One Or Two Heavy Rains In Year Where we Have To Pass The Car Under 2-3 Ft Water....In That
Case......Everything Need To Be Taken Care And Degreased After Sometimes......!!
My NISSAN Clutch Was Literately Acting Like 30'-40s World War Truck Clutch.....!!! After I Spray Some WD-40 Across That Moving Area Of Lever ......It Came Back To Life And Gave Much Relief To My Legs...!!
Usually Nothing Is Recommended To LUBE The Clutch Cable But Once You Run DIRTY And Play Dirty games Like we Do Ever Monsoon Here In Karachi....You Need To Do Some Cleaning...Else Your Clutch Cable will Be Broken Very Soon....! (I Broke 2 Already)
