Opposite.
Throttle movement off idle should start to move the 'kickdown' lever to increase the internal pressure with increasing throttle.
When the throttle is fully open - the lever on the transmission should be close to fully back. (While you're at it, malke sure thethrottle pedal actually causes the primary throttle to fully open.)

Ok, great, thanks! Then my cable setup skould work. But only if the lever 'wants' to move on its own. I'll look at those pages. Thanks again.

Thank you.
