WD40 would work just fine temporarily, but I would want new cables on my boat. I would save the old ones as a backup though, that would allow you to immerse them in a pan of light oil which would easily lube the entire length, imho. I never thought you could use wd40 for starter fluid, interesting, may try it some time. wes carroll
