Chuck, my boat has Teleflex dual rack as well. One of the cables
chronically seizes due to a high angle entry into the hull. I've extended
the service life on it (in addition to two replacements so far) by cutting
the sheathing away and injecting a motorcycle lube containing teflon into
the core. I don't have the product name for you, but I bought it at a cycle
shop (think it's made for cycle cables) and came in a ~2 oz bottle with a
hypodermic applicator. Don't forget to wipe with solvent and reseal the
cable.

Thanks Bill, its out of the boat and I have it stewing in some penetrating
oil right now hoping that will free the cable. I have the Teleflex Dual
Rack
and Pinion system and the cheapest I have found a cable was for 109.00. I
really trying to avaid having to pay anything to get it working again,
anything short of driving with a single cable that is.

I had just heard of other people getting them free, but have yet to come
across some one that actually has.

If you can get the cable out, jsut replace it.

Was about 1/2 the price at other places. Morse and Teleflex are the
same
company now. If you have red cables there are numbers on the cable that
tell what the cable is. Length and ends.

I have isolated my issue down to a single stuck cable rather than an
entire
new system that was proposed to me.
Has anyone ever had a cable that was siezed and successfully freed it?
and
if so what are the methods for doing freeing the cable up?

Thanks
