I have a 31 hp vanguard lt. when I remove my hand from the throttle it slows down. is there anyway to tighten the throttle to stay in one position?

Could one of you guys post a pic of your throttle body assembly on the engine. I'm still having a small problem with mine and I just want to make sure I haveall my springs and rrods in the right spots and that everything is adjusted correctly. Thanks.

Ok maybe I am calling it the wrong thing. It's on top of the engine where the throttle cable comes in and there are a few springs and plates that move as you give it gas. Mine does not seem as responsive like maybe I have a spring on in the wrong spot or like something could be bent.
