I have a Mariner 40 hp Tiller motor and when I push the handle away from me to turn the boat, I have no issues. When I pull the handle towards me to turn the boat, it wants to stick a little bit. Not sure what the part is called but the metal shaft that slides back and forth as I turn feels a little tacky. The shaft is not bent at all. When I lube that shaft up, it slides back and forth just fine for a bit but then becomes a little sticky again, making it difficult to straighten out the boat after I have turned in that direction.

What type of lube or grease would you guys suggest I use to help this?

Thanks!
