completely adjusting throttle linkage



hey everyone,

i am pleased to report that my car is running at about 97% perfection after a 
complete winter of tuning it up, rebuilding some parts, and cleaning others. 
i have two problems left but i will only address one of them under this 
subject heading.

i was wondering if someone out there who is really 'in the know' could 
explain how to adjust the throttle. i want to know what needs to be adjusted 
under what conditions, etc. right now my problem is that my butterfly flaps 
aren't opening fully under full-throttle, but i don't really know where to 
adjust that or how much to adjust it. also, my idle speed microswitch does 
not engage unless i hit the gas hard and drop it quickly, hitting the switch 
harder. 

i need to know where to start from scratch with the gas pedal stop-screw and 
work my way up through the throttle spool, the linkage, and the idle speed 
striker screw.

it would be much appreciated!

Andy
