Hey, I have a 2 year old Barnett clutch cable on my 98 Fatboy. After installing, I guess I didn't have it secured properly and the clear plastic coating on the outside was burned by the exhaust. I might get a drip or 2 in a day. Not a big leak but I know it's there and was wondering if anyone knew of a way to seal it up? A new one is over a hundred and I'd rather not if I didn't have to... Thanx...

 

Clear shrink tubing might help.

 

With some seal all.

 

Do do you have a brand name? Thanx Mark...

 

Black RTV. But just were is the fluid coming from. I have seen cables appear to leak from oil that gets away from you when you do a filter and getting into that outer protective tube that is over the actual sheeth that protects the spiral wrap metal sheeth over the the actual clutch cable which rides in another Teflon or some form of actual bearing surface for the cable.

 

Had a similiar issue on my 2013 FLHTK about 8 months after inistalled 13" apes and cables. Fixed mine with black shink tube that has a sealer inside. Most good electrical supply stores have it. Even some Farm & Home type stores do too.

 

Yea, I'm leaning that way. When I do it I'll heat the cable casing first then slip the shrink tube over it and torch it down.... I'm sure Napa has the good stuff....

 

Took a couple of days but now I understand what you meant... Shrink tube with Seal-Tite.......

 

Seal-All:

Had a gas tank leaking on an old S-15. I put this on while it was leaking, kinda of bubbled up but it stopped the leak. Drove it for a couple years like that before I sold it. Hell it might still be on there.

 

I found Marine Grade Clear Heavy Walled Adhesive lined 3/4" Electrical Shrink Tube online.... Shrinkage is 3:1. The adhesive should seal it well. Ordered it this morning... I'll let you all know how it works....
