spray some carb cleaner down the cable and with the quad off work the throttle from wide open to shut a dozen times or so. that'll get the gunk out, then spray a tiny amount of white lithium grease into the cable just like the carb cleaner and work it into the cable by going wide open to fully closed a few times. that should loosen it up a good bit. if it doesnt take a look at the carb slide, or buy a new throttle cable

or u it might be the slipe that is what mine was i just spayed a wisker of wd40 on my finger and swirld it around the slide and it cured it

you sure that the slide is in right, it only goes in one way, theres a little pin inside the carb on the brake pedal side, the groove in the slide has to line up with that pin

Same thing with me. I will just be driving down the road and I decide to gun it and when I let off the throttle and pull in the clutch, it revs up. I noticed that i can still pull the throttle back and forth a little bit and it will be loose still

I wouldn't mind betting that you may have shed a wire in the cable near the thumb end.

After much use, sometimes the cable (which is made up of twisted strands of high tensile wire) has a wire break, sometimes up the end some, where you can't see it.

This stray wire snags in the liner causing the cable to stick.

Take both ends of the cable off and see if it runs freely, if it doesen't you may need to replace the cable.
