Hello out there, I recently returned from an 18 month deployment to Iraq, my tractor has sat for this time period with no attention. It started right away but the throttle seems to be stuck wide open inside the fuel injector pump, does anyone have anyidea what I could do to fix this problem

Welcome home.
It may be something as simple as a gunk or gummy area it the throttle valve area.
Change out all the fuel to clean fresh. Look for an injector pump additive that cleans. DO NOT go overboard with more is better.
For instence the additives that kill diesel fungus will leave a very gummy residue (almost like a varnish) and it takes alcohol to cut that.
If it worked B4 U left play with it some and it might,hopefully, loosen up with out a overhaul. ....

Welcome home, and thanks for your service.
Start by oiling and moving all joints in the throttle linkage. Next, there's a friction disk (to hold the hand throttle where you set it, against the pull-back spring) which may be too tight, or the spring may have weakened. ....
