That's the throttle dashpot. It keeps the throttle from slamming down to nothing after letting off.

You might find one in these threads? A lot of people remove them and just feather down the throttle by downshifts I suppose. Mine works but I do think I've read they are adjustable. Seems like you run them out further on the threaded section to get up against the plate. It's been a long time for me but good luck, I think you can figure it out.

Here's the threads with the info...
