Talking Re: Gas pedal works backwards now

Did you remove the gas pedal from the inside of the cab or? Reason I say this is, because I took mine out to powder coat it black, and it had a locating pin inside the two halves that the arm pivot on, (mine is a 71 with cable throttle) I believe this is the same problem I am having, not enough pedal travel to open the throttle. I probably got the locating pin in the opposite direction, in other words, at the bottom of the two pivot halves locating hole so it will only travel an inch or so, and my pedal is damn near the floor. I'm gonna look at this tonight, hopefully I can get a few pictures showing what I am trying to describe. My cable has way too much slack in it for the pedal arm to fully pull the cable.maybe the pedal arm is backwards, I don't know I'm really curious now....
