The gas pedal requires a bit of effort to push down and doesn't really want to come back up. I will look into it some more tomorrow. The crossbar almost seems like it needs to be lowered because everything is so darn tight. Almost like the throttle cable isn't long enough. Just wanted to throw this out there before I keep messing with it tomorrow.

Can't see the arm for the 3-4 side carb link, but they should sit horizontal or slightly upward throttle off, most use an extra return spring in addition to the carb springs.
The arm for the cable should be beyond vertical for greatest leverage. Moving the attachment bracket aft will allow you to re-position the cable longer.
