So every now and then my accelerator sticks and the car keep going faster and then it'll just sort itself out and the car stops accelerating.
What could be causing this? Should I just get a new cable or do I need to lube up some joint. It maybe something else?
Thanks!

It could be a number of things.

Pedal pivot bush
Pedal pivot bolt done up to tight
Broken/kinked sheath on your cable
Frayed cable end that jams in the sheath
Cable needs lube
Sticking shafts in the carby
Pedal getting stuck on floormats
ect

Get the pedal pivot kit from LROR, new pedal rubbers and a new cable anyway, things like that make a car nicer to drive. Stiff, squeaking pedals suck.

Check for a cracked firewall causing the above.
