Will a throttle cable stretch over time?

KK-

Good call on testing with a small lead weight at the pedal, there is just enough room there to try that. If that is it, I will go for a replacement.

If I go new, anyone know if a replacement is made for a 273-2 for my car? They certainly cannot be in demand. Maybe there is a universal? I suppose I could also post over on parts wanted and see if anyone has one laying around.

Thank you
