Pb blaster isn't bad but both wd-40 and PB blaster are penetrating oils, use a white lithium grease version. I used the wd-40 white lithium grease on my 1995 cable that isn't really for this car but is the only replacement I could find. (Let me know if you need the part number, you will need to drill the firewall if going to use it.) I 3D modeled a replacement to the rubber bushing that seems to always blow up or split (I can send the model files too if you want to print it and the specs and other equipment needed). If your throttle pedal is stiff though this isn't a hard fix and seems to be common on these cars. Simply unhook throttle cable from the throttle body and get it as straight as possible (doesn't need to be taken off of the pedal or firewall) if u can angle it to let gravity feed the lube then it's a little easier. Get some white lithium grease or another kind of lubricant, pull cable too you, spray cable and inside the sleeve. Next work the cable back and forth in the sleeve and repeat until you feel comfortable. Must I add this doesn't immediately fix it you will need to drive it and wait, but the more you work it and more lube you put the faster and better it should work.
