In Reply to: Steel push pull cable question. posted by jim lee [108.162.246.236] on Thursday, November 09, 2017 at 02:06:59 :

Two things. First the cable is for controlling my cab heat valve. I looked at how the valve was being controlled and from the geometry of all the bits it seemed like if I just rotated the cable 180 degrees and hooked it to the arm that way it would have a more direct pull. Cable goes in and out and the arm is on a lever going over the hump.

Then, before re-hooking it up I spread a little corn-head grease in each end and ran it in and out a zillion times to run the stuff in the casing.

Between the corn-head grease and getting a better attachment angle, it now works great.

I was so happy I hopped in for a ride. Now missing so bad I barley made it home.

Its alway something. I think this truck enjoys being worked on.
