Are the strings getting hung up in the nut slots?

What gauge strings are you using?

no they are not,here is the example:fisrt i tune my guitar,then if i relase my strings with tremolo bar,the string will be a little bit relaxed(lover than it is tuned),but if i pull my tremolo bar on the other side,strings would be higher than normal(then how it is tuned).it is visible by the eye that the tremolo bar does not come back into same place.
And what you think about instalizing the tremsetter???

P.S.:sorry about my english

You might ensure the springs under the backplate are correctly secured. Assuming its a 2 point tremolo, maybe the bridge is getting hung up at the two pegs. Are they tight?

what is happening is, the strings are being pulled tight and to some degree staying tight. The only problem could be with the Nut or string retainer that sits on the headstock and the E+B strings go under.

I would lubricate all the nut slots and the undersides of the stringtree. If that helps a bit but not enough your nut slots could need widening.

On the back of the guitar, there is a plate. If you open it up, you'll see the trem block with some springs attached to a claw. Its a good idea to make sure those springs are in the right position. I'd give you a picture of what it looks like, but my Strat has a fixed bridge and is held down with 2 springs too many. :?
