Is it a good idea to pump grease into a brake parking brake cable that is sticking to free it up?
No, Pumping grease into a parking brake cable is not a good idea because, often the lubricant winds up working it’s way down the cable into the rear brake assembly where it contaminants the rear shoes. If the brake cable is sticking or freezing up because water is getting inside, or it is rusted best thing to do is replace it!
