3. If free play (A) is not within spec (3/8 - 1/2 in., 10 - 12 mm), loosen the locknut (B), turn the adjusting nut (C) until the deflection (A) is as
specified, then retighten the locknut (B).

Also check the throttle valve to be sure it returns to the idle position stop whenever you release the accelerator pedal.
