Well I would first try to get the cable going because then you don't have to remove the nut. I once read that a good way of getting oil in the cable is to take a plastic ziploc and cut a tiny corner off it, feed the cable through, then tape the plastic to the outer cable, then pour some oil in the bag and it will easily run down the inside of the cable. I would just use motor oil like they recommend.

Second, about the nut, penetrating oil takes some time, (I figured you used like WD-40) so just give it a rest and try again tomorrow.


Good luck.
