The throttle/acceleration cable broke about one inch above the end that connects to to accelerator pedal wire frayed into. I cannot find this cable anywhere, GM part number 15151057. It is discontinued by GM and not available from them, eBay, or Amazon. None of the part stores or aftermarket websites Lokar Dorman. Not having any luck at junkyards either. Do not want to try some universal kit. What can I do?

You really just in need of the inner cable.

For what it is worth, see "my answer" in this link:
