Merry Christmas! What is the best thing to use on a choke cable that sticks in cold weather? ? AC 914H with Kohler engine. Thanks Duane

Duane, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU TOO! A lubricant that will not freeze. This would work great: [url]http://www.amazon.com/Berryman-Professional-Lithium-Grease-aerosol/dp/B0002JM890[/url]

I like to use Lock-Eze on choke and throttle cables.

Spray with Lock-eze with graphite or with a Silicone spray. If the old type cable with the wound wire shielding, spray the whole length of cable liberally. If the new plastic shielded cable and you can remove the cable from the shielding spray into the inside of the shielding letting it run out the other end. If you can't remove cable from shielding pull out as far as you can and spray with nozzle in to shielding working cable back and forth as you spray working it into the inside of shielding.

Oh, Yah! We are on the high desert, over 5000 ft. I've seen it 20 below here. Right now, it's 10-20 above each morning. Duane
