The rod has resistance from the throttle spring.

Start the motor then with a screw driver hold the butterfly in the mostly closed position
and see if the engine idles if it does relieve tension on the spring by bending the linkage arm closer to
the carbies butterfly if you still need less tension in the spring stretch one coil out from the spring.
