I was setting out to replace my throttle cable today. I crawled under the car and found the original cable very firmly attached to where it enters the tunnel. There appears to be about a 1" nipple that is not part of the cable (painted the color of the car) that the cable comes out of. But, man, that thing is like permanently bonded. The replacement cable has a metal sheath that it appears would slide over the nipple, but it's not threaded on the inside. None the less, I tried twisting the old cable off - no go. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Also, if I do ever get the cable out of the car, should I expect the new one to easily slide in right up to the pedal?
