I had a thread like this recently if you want to find it. Or I will just say, get a new throttle cable. You will be amazed that your e30 feels like a new car! Seriously, it might even take a bit to get used to. Cheers.

how hard is it to replace the cable.

did it work or what?

I went to Napa and bought White Lithimum Grease in a blue spray can, and wow did I feel a difference. The pedal was so much smoother and softer.

[bimmer_E30]

man it still stiff, and when i move or play with the throttle cable it gets smooth and soft. then it goes back to stiff, i guess i need a new throttle cable.
