Did some more work on the 5020 over the past few days. I replaced the old leaking steering valve with a rebuilt one and rebuilt the throttle mechanism. I run into some problems with adjustment of the latter and was hoping I could get some help from the forum users.

I have not done any adjustments on the injection pump itself, as I am afraid to mess anything up. Otherwise, I have followed the instructions as written in the service manual. The problem I run into is that when I set the working range and fast idle speed to work correctly (i.e. within the correct positions on the hand throttle), I run out of space on the hand throttle to turn the tractor off (by cutting the gas). If I adjust the screws on the speed control rod to be able to cut the gas off completely, I cannot reach the correct working or fast speeds on the hand throttle. Is the problem with the injection pump adjustment or should I be working on the connection under the steering valve?

I am stuck and hope that someone who has dealt with this before could help me. Thank you.
