Nothing really missing (apart from any mention of closing the thrust lever ). The original poster is using the correct title of a particular Boeing checklist. My slightly old version says:


737 Flight Crew Operations Manual
Copyright © The Boeing Company. See title page for details.


Loss Of Thrust On Both Engines

Condition: Both of these occur:
•Both engines have a loss of thrust
•Both ENG FAIL alerts show.
Objective: To restart at least one engine.

ENG FAIL (both)
1 ENGINE START switches (both) . . . . . . . . . . FLT
2 Engine start levers (both) . . . . . . . . . . . CUTOFF
3 When EGT decreases:
Engine start levers (both) . . . . . . IDLE detent
4 If EGT reaches 950°C or there is no increase in EGT
within 30 seconds:
Engine start lever
(affected engine) . . . . Confirm . . . . . CUTOFF,
then IDLE detent
If EGT again reaches 950°C or there is no
increase in EGT within 30 seconds, repeat as
needed.


How, and why, a crew decide they need this checklist is best left to their decision making process. But if they need it, then there is no mention of the thrust lever (or throttle in another language). I can't give any reasons why this should be.
