Been getting steadily worse now its revving high all the time. Applied some lubricant to the cable but hasn`t made much difference. Next step is to replace the cable but could there be a problem with the slide sticking in the carb?

Yes. Take the cable off the carb end and, twisting the throttle, see how easy the cable is sliding. Take off the carb and putting your finger in one end Lift the slide and see how that is operating.

I have a TL125 that sometimes has a sticking slide due to it being tightened more on one side than the other,

it maybe wort slacking the nuts off and tighten them up equally while twisting the throttle, if it binds , slacken

off the nut and tighten the other and work them up gently.

Something going on with the choke here..pull it out and revs drop..push it in and revs go thru the roof. This is from cold startup.

Ok..Adjusted cable all the way in by the grip and its better. So would think I gave some slack to allow slide to go all the way down.
