Patrick,
I had the same problem with my Rotax 914, I cured it by replacing the cables 
with
solid wire which I had made, any cable manufacturer can do this.

Having just fitted two new (massively expensive) throttle cables to  cure the 
apparent problem of 'stiction', I find that nothing has changed,  

Despite being meticulously careful in the fitting (no kinks etc) and  
following the build manual instructions, I cannot find a way to get the  
throttle

cables to operate properly i.e. the throttle will not open when  the lever is 
moved forward as the throttle lever spring does not overcome  the friction 
between inner and outer.

Any suggestions for a solution (stronger springs, oil??) would be  welcomed.

Patrick
