Default Throttle cable problem, i need help!

i was driving this morning and then my my gas pedal all the sudden got really hard to push down. i step on it a little bit and then after that its really hard. i checked my throttle cable and its kinda loose. my car is a 00 civic dx hatchback so my cable shouldnt have broke or partially broke. i even tried to tighten it up at the top but its still doesnt do anything. im thinking i need to change my throttle cable, but before i do i need some input on what it really is.???

unless your pedel itself is stuck then its your cable. check with honda there might be a recall otherwise just go puck one up. about 20 bucks

just go in or call in and ask have your vin handy. the cable wont cost you much and they will probably have it in stock. about 10-20 dollars for the cable but im thinking like 12 bucks well around there.
