I own a '54 3600. This image from the factory assembly manual shows the throttle control cable attached to the accelerator lever rod.

The PO of my truck had the throttle cable hooked up to where the choke control gets attached and no choke cable. I moved the throttle cable to where it is shown in pic and also added a new choke control cable.

My problem? With the throttle connected to the accelerator lever rod the throttle knob is pushed out every time I accelerate. Also, the throttle cable does not "slide" back in when I lift off the gas pedal. Obviously, something is not right!

Any thoughts?
