Check and lube all of the cables and linkage, make sure it is all working freely. May need an adjustment and/or a heavier pull back spring.

thanks newguy,I've checked the cables ,and even when the cable is disconnected then started the motor revs extremely high.I've adjusted the screw back and held the butterfly tight to it ,its off the charts.
