check your linkage, see if it is bound up on anything.

Get it fixed right away!Thats dangerous as hell.Definately take a good look at the linkage make sure its free and not binding and while you are there get a good spray lubricant and go over the cables really well.

This happened to me the cable got a litte frayed &amp; was binding in the housing that it runs though. </P>


I would disconect the throtle cable &amp; see if it binding in the cable or the tb just needs to be lubed</P>
