Sounds like a drying cable... If so, this may help:
Disconnect at tach and wheel. Won't necessarily have to be removed, but easier if it is.
A short length of rubber or poly hose (fuel, vacuum, fish tank, etc.) pushed over the top of the cablewith a small funnel inserted into the exposed end.
A catch-can on the bottom side.
With the funnel supported, pour in a few ounces of WD-40 or another light lubricant and let it sit until the lube trickles out down below.
May take more than a few ounces...
You can speed up the process by working the drive cable with a small cordless drill attached carefully, but letting it sit for a extended period will help greatly.
Any variation of the method above should get the lubeend-to-end throughout the cable assembly and work also.

Edit:
Man is it cold here too. Not use to this kind of cold yet, but I'm ready for it.
