Raven R code 281 Report post Posted October 25, 2017 Used a taper caulk tube tip and looked till I found one the had one end as big as the speedo end of the cable. Then I took electrical tape and wrapped it until the caulk tip was attached tight to the connector . Then used dish soap to lube it on and presto! so Doug ....... thanks for the TIP ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
