Sorry, after looking closely at the pictures, I noticed your kick down rod looks bent, and the adjustment screw, captured nut and return spring for the kick down lever on the carb is missing. Those parts come with a new carb. There should also be instructions. You can also buy them separately from Holley or Summit Racing or Jegs. 1) At idle with the rod connected to the lever on the carb, that lever should NOT be in a fully forward position. 2) If the adjustment screw and other missing parts were installed on the carb, and your rod not bent, initially you turn the adjustment screw so that when at wide open throttle the kick down rod is in its fully rearward position. Fine tune after driving but make certain you can always get full throttle. After that is done, you will notice, at idle the rod and lever on the carb will NOT be fully forward. You typically have to be at roughly 1/2 throttle before the throttle lever contacts the missing adjustment screw on the kick down lever and starts to move the kick down rod. You can go the Lokar route. But you are simply missing a few adjustment parts on the carb and your kick down rod looks bent. Look at Bob and Sue's photos. Theirs is set up correctly. The missing kick down lever adjustment screw and captured nut goes in the hole at the very top of the kick down lever on the carb. The green lever on the carb contacts that screw when opening the throttle. Simple arrangement. http://www.kickdownrods.com/shop/1970-ford-mustang-351c-4v-fmx
