The steering cables manufactured by the marine industry today, are not designed to be lubricated, as they cannot be disassembled as the cables of olden days. One of the most common problem areas is not the cable itself, but rather where the cable ram slides through the engine tilt tube. Pull the cable out of the tube, clean out the old hardened grease and or rust. Regrease the cable and install back into the tube. You may also want to check, while the cable is disconnected, how easy the engine can be turned from side to side. This proceedure will indicate wether the cable/helm assembly, or the engine itself is causing the hard steering.
