Sticky Throttle

Sticky Throttle
Guys,
Having a really annoying problem with the throttle on my 2003 Mazda6. 75% of the time when pressed the initial movement is very sticky, I need to put extra pressure on the peddle. This stickiness is only on the initial movement, once pressed the rest of the movement of the peddle is fine until it is returned back to the stop position. I've oiled the springs and joints on the interior and I've also cleaned and oiled the throttle body in the engine bay, but still the same. Anyone got an idea how to fix? Could it need adjusting, i.e. pulling the stop position forward a little, is this done from the throttle body?
Thanks
Sean
