Here is a pic of my carb and throttle linkage that I am trying to hook up. I can stick the throttle cable into the cable adjuster on the carb and tighten it but when I depress the gas pedal it will only open the throttle blades about 3/4 of the way open and not full throttle.

I dont want to cut the cable too short and possibly mess it up which I hope that I havent already done. At the base of the carb are the other pieces that came with the throttle cable,but I am not sure if I need them with my setup as my car is a 4speed.

Is anybody else running this same setup that can post a pic of theirs or give a tip on installing it?
