Check your throttle cable,and the throttle cam on the throttle body,some times you can spray it with wd40 to loosen it up,if it dont,the bushings are bad.

Always check the cables first be sure they are throdel up top cruise cable mid as shown. If the cables reversed it creates a hard spot on start with no happy medium when pulling off from a stop.
