My grease gun fits the nipple on the cable and gets grease in, but most of
it oozes out of the turns of the spiral sheath just either side.  When
preparing a new cable you really need to secure both ends of the inner and
slide the outer up and down whilst pumping grease in.  Thereafter topping-up
till it oozes out should be enough.
