installed a new cb performance linksage on my carbed 2.0, movement by hand is smooth, response nice and crisp, when i hooked up the accelorater cable, my gas pedal is extremely hard to press down, the cable is set all the way out at the engine bay, i checked in the center tunnel, near the cluster and it seems loose. could it be that the return spring on the carb linkage is too strong or is there a problem at the pedal cluster... or something else
