Default HELP, throttle body still sticking......

The piece of **** is still sticking. Here is what I noticed, yesterday I sprayed some throttle body cleaner and it worked great for about 10 minutes of driving. Today I took the throttle body off, and completely sprayed and wiped it down, and installed a new throttle cable. Like yesterday, it did good for 10 minutes of driving and it started to stick.
What the hell could this be?

your butterfly valve might not be clearing the throttle body. if it looks like its touching the throttle body anywhere file it down a little bit. or rig another return spring on the throttle.

Another return spring, or replace the spring on the outside?
But how could the plate begin to rub? It's never been messed with. This is such a headach!
