Disconnected line?

Hey I already feel stupid enough about this, but I was wiping down the engine bay and I bumped something disconnected this but am not sure how to reconnect it. Please help and what is this cable/line for? And do I put it on the bronzeż piece shown in the photo like how the other cable is on the other side? The gas pedal is floppy now if that helps. In the middle of putting new radiator in so can't start the car at the moment. It's a 1990 na rx7.

Looks like the cruise control cable, looks like you are missing one of the bolts (there are two), i think it connects next to the throttle control.

Wait but if your gas pedal is floppy it is probably your throttle linkage lol

just follow the cable..
if it goes to a part on the passenger side it is the cruise actuator cable.(which it is)

It goes toward the passenger side then another cord comes together with it leading to a part.

I reconnected it to the bronze piece in the photo above and now the accelerator pedal goes about half way without doing anything then revs up.
