it is a two cable set up one is a return cable, andone is the throttle cable it self. you might as well lube or replace them both why your doing it.

Welcome to the forums.
Now is a good time to invest in a good manual.

edit: because it just gets worse, good luck

They sell a do-dad that you clamp onto the cable so you can shoot some lube down it. Lube it, see if that doesn't help. Hoedogg is right you have two cables a "push", and a "pull". Lube both cables, and make sure the linkage isn't gummed up.
