Default THROTTLE sticking ..??.

Every now and then my throttle will be very hard and i have to press on it hard to pop it open and then it will be fine for a while. I dont think its the throttle cable, i think it has to do with the throttle body.. any one else have/had this issue?? Its annoying (B16a)

I had that prob on my frontier once , there's a screw right there on the rocker that the cable hooks to , try turning it counter clockwise 1/4 turn to see if that keeps the throttle plate from sticking inside the throat of the TB.

spray your tb down with carb cleaner and get rid of all the carbon that might cause it to stick

There is also a version of an air intake cleaner out there which works well.
