'02 throttle valve/acellerator cable adjustment

Accidentaly loosened throttle valve cable and accelerator cable doing maintenance. Any DIY threads on how to adjust them correctly for an '02 automatic?

let somebody else floor the gas pedal (or use a brick), check and see if the butterfly valve is fully open. if it is, you are good, some slack is acceptable when the throttle is closed, as long as the throttle body is fully opened when the gas pedal is depressed.

Thanks. But what about the cable for the transmission?
