2g throttle cable

Car in question is a 95 gst, manual, mostly stock. I am not sure what James did but the gas pedal has little to no movement in it. There is a lot of slack at the TB where the cable attaches to it. There is a lot of slack no matter how far you adjust it. I looked under the dash and saw that the cable streches past the pedal. I adjusted it a little closer at the cruise control module as it looked way out of align compared to the 95 AWD occupying the garage. It looks a little closer under the dash but the pedal has little movement to it. He makes it sound like it happened all of a sudden before I got in the car. He gave a quick snap of the throttle to spin the tires before I got in the car to test drive it. The pedal seemed in need of adjustment since I first touched the pedal. He says it wasn't like that earlier in the night. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, John.

Re: 2g throttle cable

I drove it around for a litle while and it was fine then before getting home I wanted to show someone something so I stepped on it in first to spin them and I guess it was all messed up after. The pedal doesn't move very far and is hard to push in now. It is like the car will have no gas or push it hard and get 90% throttle. Any ideas?

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

Mine is like that when the throttle cable comes out of the groove on the TB thing, mine loves to do that now since the last time I took off the cable =/
