Use grease.

"Service Information

The following hints on installation are important:

    * Cable routing should be smooth. Minimum radius should be 6".
    * Ensure that sharp bends and kinks are avoided, especially at
supporting clips.
    * Ensure that connecting nuts are securely tightened by hand (not
spanner or pliers).
    * Cables should be lubricated every 10,000 kilometers. Withdraw inner
cable and smear lightly with Shell Alvania 2 or 	equivalent.
    * Avoid excess grease and do not use oil.
      The performance of a speedometer and the service life of the
speedomoter cable depends on correct installation and 	maintenance."
