installing throttle body spacer

i realize that most people think that throttle body spacers are a waste of money, but as i have already purchased one, i want to install it and see the results for myself. this afternoon when i was installing it i ran into a bit of a problem. in the instructions it says "if the throttle does not return to the stop, you will need to adjust the cable bracket until it does." that would be my problem, after sitting there for entirely too long, i gave up because i couldn't figure out how to adjust the throttle linkage, or cable bracket, or whatever the hell i need to do. does anybody know how to do this? thanks.

I believe that you have to bend it to get it where you want it.
