Could be a number of things.

Most likely:

a) Your cable is sticking somewhere along the line.

b) Your TB is dirty and sticking.

c) Your car hates you.

d) I don't know.

I just fixed my sticking FS 65mm TB, I just turned the screw another 1/4" to tip it in a little, bye bye stickiness.

It's the cold weather, Adjust the throttle stop screw a little bit.

I am almost ready with the ported one if you want it. :D
