They are not adjustable they just fit in place of the original.

If its jerky it's not the thingy! Best way is to disconect the thing & check your pedal & cable. Also check the butterfly on the throttle body is closing smoothly. Basic stuff. Only way to fix it is to pull it to bits & see whats not doing what it should! There should be no kinks in the cable & the inner should slide in & out smooothly pulled by your fingers. It may just need cleaning & oiling.

Theyre not 'jerky' but theyre very on-or-off, leading to jerky progress. Im taking the one off my 2.7 and fitting it on my track car (mostly so that I can fit the graduated cam off this onto my everyday car).
