Are you sure you have the correct TB for your app?

Just wondering, because for my manual (for my car), it says only has a section about adjusting auto cars, but nothing for manual cars. The only thing I could think of was having the wrong TB or throttle cable.

I will just zip tie the gas pedal end of the throttle cable to make it tighter...
