sounds like your tv cable is not adjusted properly if your car is a tpi it is located in the drivers side together with the throtle linkage
to adjust it you need to find the tensioner it is a D shaped buton right behind the small cable thats the tv cable yud need to depres the buton and move the throtle linkage to WOT while keeping the button depresed and then release the button then the throtle linkage and your tv cable shoud be properly adjusted

hope this help you
