I am following the Haynes adjustment procedure and can't get it right. One side grabs too much and the other is way off. The two cables are not level in the yoke at the handle end. Had a big fight with rust on the right side cable adjuster end. That side is the problem getting it adjusted too for some reason, probably unrelated.

Guess I will undo everything and start over. Any tips or tricks?

I did find one issue, the PO had zip tied the left side cable housing up to keep it off the headers. That would not allow it to move and take up the slack. It also increased the fulcrum effect of the yoke and adjustments to the right side. I'll start over now and hopefully sneak up on the proper adjustment.
