Pulling cables/wires etc. (How to)
Picture is worth a thousand words. I am adding a water pressure gauge, but the procedure is the same for wires or cables, etc.
Get the kinks out.Kinky cables hang on stuff and make pulling difficult. I just stretched this plastic tubing between 2 chairs and let it stay long enough to get most of the kink out. You can speed the process up with a hair dryer.

Tape these together. It is best to have someone feed the stuff, but if you take time, you can do it alone. Put a coast of Vaseline on the tape for easy pull. It you bind up, back off, and try pulling from each end to reposition cable. Do not force as you will pull the string out. Take your time.

Push hose thru the engine compartment access. Grease the hose with Vaseline. Push hose with hands first, it it doesn't go, then use pliers. You may have to back out and jiggle cables some if the hose comes to a dead stop.
Vaseline makes it slide right in...;)
