Throttle body cable too tight

[beendenied]

I just swapped my motor and and when I went to install my throttle cable on my t/b, it's entirely to tight. I'm talking tight enough that I had to remove the two 10mm bolts completely, install the cable, and bolt it back up.

So since the bracket didn't help with loosening it (it's full to the left [loose]). So as it sits now the t/b flapper is like 30% open. Aka, idle is gonna suck when I start her up.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to try and adjust it right at the cruise control box. I don't want/need cruise control I just don't have to other cable.

Any suggestions?

It's probably something stupid simple, but after swapping my motor, my mind is all tuckered out hehe

If you need to start the car, you can just use one of the bolts to hold the cable to the manifold.

Yea, when I was searching around about the problem, that's the solution that came up. But I have it adjusted full loose and its still too tight. I actually had to connect the cable and pull it to bolt that bracket back on.

Did you check down by the pedal to make sure nothing down there is messed up?

I'll be sure to hit that up tomorrow too, I did wire up all my gauges at once, I may have fudged something up

What should I look for, I've heard the spring may be jacked up? Idk, I'll just take a look in the morn
