pop the hood look at the throttle body see where the cable is? now follow it to the left a little youll see a braket holding it and two jam nuts loosen and adjust.

disconnect the cable from the pedal assembly and check the bushing. Sometimes the cable will rub a groove into the bushing causing it to bind.
