My xtx throttle has 1/2" free play in the cable. Seams excessive to me.

You want about 1mm between the throttle control housing and the throttle leaver.
Could this cause my sled not to idle?

It could kick in throttle override. Tighten it properly and see.

With that much play your probably only getting 3/4 throttle when it's squeezed to the bar. Should not affect idle.

the reflash may take care of your no idle/ surging idle problem
