Will this fix my throttle "Snap"?
when i pull my throttle down and then let go it takes for ever for the bike to go back to idle.... and i know my throttle tube is broke, also my bike is a 93 so could it be something else??

It could be the tube, the throttle cable, carb slide, or even the throttle tube housing. It's not safe to ride with a broken throttle, you're risking injury or even blowing your bike up. I'd suggest taking a look at all 4 components of the throttle and replace what's worn.

If the throttle doesn't return to its regular position then you have to lube your throttle cable or clean the throttle tube and where it sits on the bars. If thats not it then its probably something in your carburator.

The throttle tube is definitely the problem.
