[omboli]

does any one know what the actual needle seat for the 787 should be ,i have read that all 787 should be 2.0 all the stuff i look up says 1.5 i bought 2.0 but they are stamped 1.2 on the bottom ,does it make a difference if i use a 2.0 or 1.5 on the 787 ,my 717 GT^I says they should be 1.2 ,can these be 2.0 or should they stay 1.2 again any and all info is greatly appreciated

Should be 1.5's

 

[mikidymac]

Yes it makes a difference. Don't use the 1.2's. Only 1.5.

 

[omboli]

So on the GTI use 1.5 instead of the 1.2

Your 96' GSX uses the 1.5.

What year GTI?

96 717 dual carbs .no one lists the 1.2 on their diagrams as available to buy

Check Amazon or Ebay. Both have them listed.

This thread got very confusing.

The 787 uses 1.5
The 717 uses 1.2

Just so the op is on the right track.

That's what I got out of it .I did rebuild the carbs on the 787 it had a bog at low end I checked the pop off one popped off at 28 the other one popped off at about a hundred after rebuilding them they are both popping off at 27 I reinstall them this morning and started it throttle response is very good. Sounds really good hopefully this took care of that bog down low now time to pull the 717 apart and redo those carbs

Another source for OEM Sea Doo parts is OSDparts.com located in Central Ohio.

Better pricing than the dealer, quick shipping and OEM parts available.

I get most of my parts from them. You just need to know the part number.
