Play with the external wire/minimum set throttle position until you find the setting you like most (great downshifts, doesn't hang up-shifts when cruising in your neighborhood, and doesn't shift so hard your teeth crunch). Then drop the pan and do the permanent internal minimum TV adjustment.
On my puller I adjusted the TV screw so it would go no lower than approx 50% throttle, that way if the TV cable ever broke, I would have some decent line pressure still. It hung a little on the up shifts, but since it saw the petal buried to the floor most of the times, I figured the cable would break on me .
