That's exactly why I put that spring in the front of the throttle connection to the carb, holy **** you're good. It felt like the throttle wasn't coming down at all, I thought that was from the cable so I put a spring in front to pull back on the assembly in case it was getting stuck because of the alignment of the throttle cable.
So, the problem has to be somewhere in the run between the transmission and where it comes up the firewall (Lokar said I should have to cut some off because it should be too long and I thought it was too short). Putting the adjustment there was the only way it would fit onto the throttle linkage when the linkage was wide open which is I thought the way it was supposed to be adjusted. With the adjustment right in the middle on the TV linkage and I was shy of the throttle connector by about an inch or so.
