1. No lube on teflon lined cables.
2. Clean and grease barrels on both ends (and hole in lever and area on tranny bellcrank).
3. Felt at top and accordian boot at bottom keep grit and moisture from getting into cable.
Lack of #2 is the #1 cause of clutch cable failure. Most cable failure is right near the barrels due to repeated cable bending because the barrel is stuck.
If you carry a spare clutch cable, always carry a spare upper barrel (NOT included with new cable) taped to the new cable. Barrel could fall out on the road when the cable breaks. DAMHIK!!!
