Default Stiff Throttle

I just got a used engine re&re on my 97 Accord, all is well except that the throttle is way stiffer than it used to be!!
I have not had the time to take it back to the shop that did it.
I thought that someone here could help me out so that I could do it myself!!
I looked at the throttle cables etc.. and it looks fine!!
Any thought would be nice
Thanks

have you tried under the hood.. maybe the thing that gets pulled by the throttle cable is dirty and needs to be lubed?
dunno...
