Oh man, I am up a creek. I am installing the Tangerine cable system and one carb is fine, but after I installed the pulley, one carb is binding and will ALMOST return to idle, but it is binding on something. The carbs are rebuilt but I did not replace throttle shaft bearings. The carb works fine throughout it's range of motion except for the last 10 degrees where it should return to idle. If you let it snap shut, it shuts, but if you ease off, it sticks.
I have had this freaking carb and cable system apart and back together 5 times and don't know where to look. Carbs are Made in Spain 40 IDF |

I had something similar happen to one of my Dellorto carbs after a soak and rebuild. A few squirts of PB Blaster on the throttle shaft ends and springs freed it right up. In my case, I believe it was the springs. Even if it's your bearings, I would first give this a patient try hoping it will penetrate the bearing seals.
