OK, just went and took another look. The vacuum line looks fine ... and it's pretty much clear of the engine and valve cover, unless I'm looking at the wrong thing? I also was able to move the throttle linkage smoothly and it looked like it was normal movement. It looks like it's in the normal off position when left untouched. I guess it's possible when I reattached it, it got stuck slightly and then maybe unstuck once I hit the stop lever and then moved it by hand. I didn't think to check for range of motion right after I reconnected it. However, I'm afraid to try starting it to see if it works correctly now. I was relieved the stop lever worked the first time, but I know if it is the shutoff valve, the lever may not work next time.
