Pic #1: Looks like a coolant temp sensor and some stray wire (probably used as a ground)

Pic#2: Possibly the ground wire for the side engine lids

Pic#4: Adjust the throttle cable by moving the 2 nuts on the cable bracket. You can see them in this pic

pic #2 isnt the engine lid one, this one just kinda hangs there and its black and white in case the high quality picture doesnt show that lol, and i got it to tighten up a little more, i repositioned the U shaped thing that the cable bends around, but those nuts dont actually tighten the cable do they? since the cable just runs through it? and the spring in the yellow thing, isnt tight at all, im not sure if its supposed to be though

Did you adjust the 2 nuts in the left, center part of the pic? The actual nuts on the cable are the adjustment nuts.
