    Disconnect the cable from the throttle arm on the pump and see if the throttle arm is sticking open, if not the problem is with the cable, try getting some lube, Inox or WD40, down the cable, if the cable is buggered you will have to drop the box sump to fit a new one, good luck. Regards frank.

    Check where your throttle cable is routed.

    Mine was always had to press the accelerator and used to stick every now and then.
    I had a look at someone elses cable and it was routed different to mine, when I changed it, it was easier to press the accelerator and has never stuck since (touch wood) :-)
