check the throttle body. May have excess build up in there causing the flap to stay stuck open. If its clean, then yur next bet would be to check the cable.

Ya it's either a worn out seized cable, or buildup in the throttle body. What I would do is remove your throttle body clean it out with some degreaser and put a new throttle cable on anyways. If your throttle cable isn't worn out now, it probablly will be soon. Just my opinion.

Call your local dealer and have them pull a vin stat on your car and see if your car is eligable for the throtle cable or floor mat ancor recall.

Oh yeah, I forgot you bought the EF from some ricer. Did he put those ghey autozone CHROMEY pedals in?
Edit: yeah, you do got them. Unscrew the pedals, your stock pedals are underneath. the chrome pedals are just "add ons" that look queer.
