It sounds like your jamming up on something on your carb linkage or the cable is kinked. Check the cable from the pull to the carb for kinks as there should be no sharp bends (the straighter the better). Check that your carb linkage is free with the cable detached. You also might try spraying the cable with some WD40.

OK....
I understand the problem you have and the best solution that I can think of has already been suggested (some lubricant in the cable). I certainly don't want to detreact from that and hope you resolve your problem.

But I gotta tell ya that the topic of this thread is just plain funny.
