FIX MY CAR!!

I need some help from you petrolheads out there. Basically my accelerator pedal is just about flat to the floor when i'm driving and it is slow to pick up speed. There is also no springiness or flexibility in the pedal. I have had this problem before a few years ago but i can't work out which it was that needed doing. It was either a loose cable or something to do with the throttle cable ( as mine snapped a year ago ) or it was the pedal box that was bent and stuff ( and i had this done also about a year ago).

Do any of you guys know which of the two it is likely to be and maybe anything other then that it might be? (I'm fairly sure it's one of the two as it's happened before and i've had it fixed before).

Thankyou so much fellow chipnicker motor enthusiasts! :-D :scarf:
