Throttle Cable Lubrication

[BC in NC]

New boat owner. Seems like an easy answer, but cant find anywhere here or via the owners manual, google, youtube etc.....
What lubrication to use on the throttle cable?

I have a 2018 SSRX Tritoon and it has a handy fill hole on the dash. I assume just put some drops in there, but what do I use?

The fill hole on the dash is for your seastar steering system. If you are having trouble with the throttle, either the binnacle has a problem or a cable is bad or pinched someway.

Ah thank you for the answer!

No troubles with my throttle, but does feel a little "tight" and isn't the smoothest to operate.

There is a friction adjust screw on your throttle.

You may not even have a cable depending on your engine choice. As Tinkertoy mentioned start with the binnacle friction screw and go from there. Could very well be something in the linkage (if mechanical OB) but start simple and most likely places then progressively work your way back.
