It gets sticky 'at rest' because fuel vapours condense on the butterfly,
and turn to glue. You can clean the throttle body yourself, or have it
done. Do a google search for accord throttle body clean, or look at the
FAQ at tegger.com. Meantime, tap the pedal _before starting_ to avoid
dangerous takeoffs. :-)
