Make sure that the throttle plates are installed properly (they have a
bevelled edge) and _centered_. If they are not, they will hang up on the
bore of the carb.
To center them, loosen the screws that hold the plates in and slam the
throttles shut a couple of times. Then hold the throttle cam in place
while you tighten the screws. Don't forget to "peen" the end of the set
screws so they don't lossen up again.
ALso check your entire throttle linkage - one section at a time to make
sure your "sticking" isn't linkage related.
