Maintenance/Repairs

My car keeps accelerating even when I stop pressing the gas pedal. It does not happen all the time, but way too often. I cleaned the throttle body often, and removed a carbon ball in the ERG valve that was the size of marble. I have sprayed
the “throttle” cable, and tightened away most of the slack in the “accelerator” cable ( btw, how much slack should be in this cable), what else can be done? HELP!
