parking brake cable

has seemed to gain some slack in it or something. how do you fix it?

More than likely, your rear brake shoes need adjusting. The self adjusters do not alway do their job :cry:

 

Here's a link, and follow Steps 15-18, and with your shoes adjusted properly, your parking brake should work.

I also like to clean the star adjustment sytem on my bench grinder's steel brush wheel and then give it a nice coat of 50/50 of anti-sieze and wheel bearing grease to make sure they turn really nicely for a while.
