Will a throttle cable stretch over time?

67Dart-

I am glad you posted that pic. I have the manual. Looking at that pic, doesn't it appear that the throttle cable routes behind the kick down? My conduit is so stiff, there is no way I can get it to do that. I haven't just in front of the kick down now (which is far better than where it was).

We are clear of the carpet, and when the cable is adjusted all the way back in the bracket, I obtain WOT, but that is when the internals won't close and leaves me with high idle.

I am suspecting an improper replacement at some point as some have pointed out.
