Spongy Gas Paddle

On my Xjr i had a odd spongy thing going on and when i would let off the gas, it would idle high, and not go back down. unless i hit the pedal quick. Simprof on my mine there are these 2 black throttle cable ajusters that unclip to turn them. there is one right out of the fire wall, and one right after the traction control motor thing. i played around with these and got my idle to return back to normal and sorta fixed my spongy feel.

Search the archives with *traction control* and *cable* thrown into the serach. Someone posted the adjustment procedure right out of the manual....probably Motorcarman.
To be honest I've followed ...or tried to follow...the prescribed adjustment procedure and I couldn't make sense of it. Could be I was having a dense moment....not all that unusual for me these days.
I just adjust mine to take up any excess slack and call it good. If the engine speed increases you know you've gone too far.
