    Check to make sure your throttle return spring hasn't come off

    also make sure the cabe is in properly in the plate on top. It could have slipped off and be getting caught.

    Also make sure the throttle cable is the right tension, you'll need to adjust the two nuts that hold the sheath in position around the cable itself, make sure it's not too loose or too tight.
