It shouldn't to be adjusted. See if you can move the TB easily by placing your hand on the end where your throttle cables attach and rotating the TB shaft counter clockwise. If it don't move freely make sure the Tb inner housing is clean with no obstructions making contact with the butterfly valve. If this is good I'd say your problem is with the throttle cable. Possibly some corrosion in which case I'd disconnect the cables at the TB and see if I could some lube inside the cable sheth.

Thanks for the feed back. I figured it out the throttle cable was a little loose. I tightened it up and it is working great.
