So the alternate air cable is "sticking" since the last time the lower cowling was removed and replaced by my avionics shop, but they aren't taking responsibility. (Something I'm realizing that nobody does anymore, especially with expensive airplanes!) They cam over and sprayed some lube along the cable, and said it's fine. But it doesn't function properly, and the lever is really hard to push, and makes a sound as if the actual lever is flexing and about to break. I took a look at the cable and "sleeve" and it seems to have quite a long route, with a loop in it that seems unnecessary. Any ideas about the part number, any suggestions, and has anyone had this problem before?

Thanks
