I have used a lubricant called Tri-Flow that has performed
excellently. It penetrates like WD-40, but leaves a teflon film when
dry. You might check your local bicycle shop or sporting goods store.
I used it to free up a vent cable in my old Suburban and it's still
working fine after several years.

I didn't mean to get everybody exited about WD40, I was just trying to say
that a thin lube was better than grease, obviously using WD40 as an example
was a poor choice!!

All,
Motorcycle riders have been lubing brake and clutch cables on their
machines for decades. The "smart" ones use a lubricant designed for the job
and a small tool to force the lubricant down the cable. So, I agree, DO NOT use WD-40. It is more of a cleaner than a lubricant
When I rode (before the advent of hydraulic clutch and brake cabling) I
used one of these devices and can tell you that they work and work well...
