sticking accelerator cable on my 740 Turbo

Hi,just back from a short trip and the accelerator has decided to
stick on,I managed to manually 'unstick' it but on continuation of
journey it kept doing it,I have cleaned round cable in engine and
doesn't stick when controlled from the engine,just when the pedal is
depressed,does anyone know what the problem can be,it seems to be at
the accelerator pedal rather than inside the engine,do I need to
replace cable or is there a more simple solution to this,thnx in
advance for any advice

I had a problem with mine that was fixed by using some decent oil into the
cable housing.
Have you checked for any obvious clearance issues ? I think you should
probably remove one end of the cable from it's mounting point and check to
see how free the cable is. You would need to be VERY certain that you fix
this and fix it well. Nasty things happen with stuck throttles.
