my throttle cable adjustment is seized, shot some wd40 and let it sit but its not budging. any ideas? would like to avoid buying a new cable.
I had the same problem and did buy new cables.

On the new cables I have put a good coat of grease on the adjusters before covering with the rubber boots. Another maintenance job to do - crack the lock nut just to make sure it moves.
