throttle cable sticking??

well,it started today,whenever I shift,the throttle(I can tell by the tach)
drops real slow,then kind of stops at 1500 rpm...
I can hold the gas pedal steady at about 2-3000 rpm then let off,
it goes down real slow until it dies,
so I'm guessing its the throttle cable,
I messed with it a little bit,checked the freeplay,
everything seemed alright,so what else could it be?
No one has a throttle cable (acclerator cable) not advanced,autozone,napa,o reileys,carquest,I cant find one,
so I put a WTB up in the classifieds,if anyone else knows what else it could be or some sort of test I could do on it let me know asap,
the only other sorce I can think of is that its my computer from where its cold,
because I have a pm9 in my car,& at times it acts up when its cold out,,,but its not that cold.
But N E Wayz,does it sound like the throttle cable?
