oiling a throttle cable

Hi,
Is it a good idea to oil the throttle cable or will that do more harm than good?
I've got an old one as a spare and I was wondering about lubricating it before packing it up.
thanks

I would use wd40 due to its water displacing action, or light oil.

You can hang them up and form a funnel from blue tac around the cable, keep filling the funnel with 3 in one oil until it comes out the other end. Did you get the right cable in the end?
