only parts that I

think are something to do with it.

This will be kind of generic: The usual scheme is that the throttle
control cable connects to some sort of governor, which then connects via
springs to the carb. So when you open the "throttle," you're really
telling the governor what speed you want, and the governor controls the
throttle plate in the carb. Governor adjustment generally involves
loosening a set screw/clamp and adjusting the position of a plate on the
governor shaft that sticks out of the engine. The spring adjustment usually
minimizes "hunting" or speed surging. You well might be able to find a
diagram on line of how things connect.
