Andy, You probably find that the cable is a little tired at the other end too. A cable usually lasts around 15 yrs or 300'Ks so I'd buy a new one or find one at a wrecker that's not frayed. You can easily tell if they're tired by gently running your finger along the bit that loops over the 1/2 moon. I just thought of another thing, if you get one from a wrecker try and get one of an auto as they tend not to fray as quickly as a manual as the throttle hasn't been opened and shut as often.
