When I took the throttle body cables off, I broke one. When I ordered a new one it was called a brake booster cable. It runs from the TB to the left side of the engine to a little black circle thing with what looks like vacuum lines attached. Do you know what that does?

Have you got cruise control?

Plug the hole. One cable goes to your right foot, the other to the trany. Do make sure the "not a kickdown" cable to the trans isn't holding the throttle open. There is a button on the top of that cable housing right where the cable comes out. I set mine with just a scoch of play. Not pulling but not loose ether.
EDIT Oh! Yea, I have a third from my cruze to the same bracket that the throttle cable goes to. My Cruse cable is slack.

My third cable to the cruse control connects there on the same bracket as the throttle cable. It is slack, no tension there. Pretty sure there is no such thing as a brake booster cable.

That's what I was getting at....it's the cruise cable he broke.
What I'm wondering is if he has them connected to the correct locations?
If so........and it's not a problem at the TB......he's got a problem at the gasket.
