RE: [Chrysler300] Tach Cable Lube & Console - 300H

["Richard Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

Welcome, Newbie, and thanks for the response.  Nice selection of MoPars!

 

I think graphite is preferred, especially in cold climes where sub-zero cold soak can really get those speedo cables and speedometer heads screaming and oscillating.

Pull the cable out of the housing and use common Vaseline to lube the cable
well, and slid it back in. Done! If you don't like that solution get some
graphite, pull the cable out and work the graphite into the housing replace
the cable. 

I used clear spray paint to protect the bright work in my interiors after I
cleaned them up. That was ten years ago and it looks as good as the day I
painted it.

I have my console out and think that now is the time to lube the tach cable.


The archives don't say much about what type and how much to use. 

All suggestions will be appreciated. 

I am installing seat covers, seat foam, carpet and winnlacing from Gary -
The original carpet is still there! - Was covered by another layer. 

Does anyone know where I can find the rubber gromets that fit in the floor
pan that the seat bolts go thru? 

I am having the aluminum console trim strips polished and don't want to have
them re-anodized. Is there a recommended clear finish to use to prevent
oxidation?
