throttle cable won't budge after trying to remove it

[driftman11]

My throttle cable was acting up and sticking alot so i decided to replace it with a new one. As I was pulling the cable out from the front( it was quite stiff to pull any), it pulled out prob. 1-2 ft, then it just stopped completely. Now i can't get it to move another inch Any advice on what could be stopping it? any way to free it up? or what should I do now?

Its probably hung on the bowden tube. Get under the car and remove the bowden tube and see if you can get the cable out.

can you explain or point me to where i can see how to remove the tube? I got underneath it but the cable looks to be crimped on the metal tube?? maybe im not seeing it clearly

n/m I got it off and you were right. it was stuck in middle of tube. I just cut cable once i got tube off and it pulled right out of the metal tube in tunnel. New bowden tube is now on order!
