Very common with the skunk 2 TB. Ran one and very quickly swapped it out. No need to over rev my motor because of a bad TB. Read lot's of other posts of peoples sticking too

you can try wd40. I have heard of people lightly sanding the inside bore of the TB. I thought about doing it too, but I just got another TB. I'm more then happy with my new one.
