Have you considered it might be the cable?

hi everyone:

i am new here and i come bearing a problem :

the tachometer on my 1966 tr4a makes unbearable screeeeeming noise.    the noise never goes away .        time, distance, speed , weather , and temperature  make no difference.

i disconnected the cable to achieve blessed quiet.

the tach is now out    and sitting on my workbench.

 all i know to do is take it apart   and oil it.
 is that a good idea ?   risky ?
what sort of lubricant ? is there anything else i should look for ?

thanks
            fred zampa            macon ga
