Default Throttle Cable

Does anybody know how to adjust the throttle cable. And can someone shed some light on where the kickdown cable is at and how to adjust it. Thanks

im not exactly sure how this works, but on mine there's two cables... one of them has a screw at the throttle body end of it... it adjusts tension on the throttle cable to the best of my knowledge

Yea the screw type cable is the cruise control cable, if tightened too much would cause the throttle cable to pull and it will idle higher and kinda run like crap.

So, is there no such thing as the kickdown cable, I saw that some people were referring to it by the trottle body but they might have been talking about the cruise control cable
