IF yours is like mine, you cannot lube the cables themselves and lubing the slide valves will not fix corroded cable runs. Cable runs in a tube, for several feet from the pull handle to the valve and there is no way to grease. I just replaced the black and one of the gray, and the kits which included new valves were $80 each. Underbelly needed to come off which was not hard. About all you can do is insure no kinks, keep the runs short as possible, use tywraps so cable remains stationary, and according to the parts store where I got the kits, routinely open and close the valves to exercise. Apparently after time, corrosion and other buildup is the primary cause of problems.
