Check the TB valve spool.  It is only spring-loaded to return and sometimes can hang up.
Also, check to make sure the linkages for the 3pt lift and "bellcranks" are free and not rusted or stuck.

I had that experience as well as Skyhighballoon(Mike)
 
The problem in our case was that the draft control lever was stuck. There was a bolt at the pivot point that had seized up. A few minutes with some PB Blaster and a couple wrenches solved the problem.
