choke cable lubing

[monahanwb@yahoo.com]

The other day I posted that my choke (enricher) cable was sticky and/or stuck. I lubed it and studied up on the advice offered by Kurt and others, so I thank all of you who offered. Last night I went out to roll the bike into my living room which is where I work on the bike, and the choke worked fine, or at least a lot better. I suppose this is from the lubricant sitting in the cable housing overnight or something....so today I went and bought one of those Champion cable lubing clamps that allow forced lubrication of the cable (via the can pressure, anyhow). I was wondering if that since the cable terminates inside the carb at the enricher piston, is it going to damage the enricher to force-feed a bit of lubricant down to the end of the cable? Have any listers force-fed their enricher cable this way before? Wet Willie KLR 98 just turned 16,000 R1100RS 97
