Where the cable housing mounts in the bracket by the carb, there is a release button (looks more like a plate). Press that in and pull back on the cable housing. Release the button and let go of the cable. Slowly depress the accelerator pedal to the floor, and it will click the TV housing until it is properly adjusted. You can also just open the throttle from under the hood.
