Why is my throttle returning very slow.

[dswalterwi at gmail.com (Don Walter)]

My throttle is not returning back to its home postion as quick as it
should.  This is making for some interesting driving as when
accelerating and I push on the clutch the car continues to rev like
keeping your foot on the pedal before I can shift into the next gear. 
It's not the cable that is binding.  If I turn the throttle by hand it
retruns very slowly back to its home position with plenty of slack in
the cable.  Well close to its home position.  What can I do to fix
this?
