Noisy speedometer cable

[bob32268]

I have a 66 Coronet 440 and the speedometer cable is making a racket. What's the best/correct way to lubricate the cable ?
Tks,

You will probably be happier if you start with a new cable. But what I have done is take the cable out of the car and work a lubricant into the cable.

I’m afraid once it’s started making racket, that’s an indication the inner sheathing is probably worn through. New cables aren’t that much.
