Greetings,
This is my first post. Just bought a 99 challenger with twin 787's. One of the engines throttle is stuck wide open. Took out the carbs and the throttle lever assembly which connects to the throttle valve is very tough to move. The spring does not have enough power to take it back. Cleaned it and soaked it in oil and its a little better but not enough. The carbs havent been touched or cleaned in a while so I ended up buying a set of 787 carbs that I thought would be fine on the challenger, but I was wrong. The carbs showed in the manual were the standard 787 mikuni carbs and not the challenger carbs. Does anyone know where I can find one and not pay $450 for the Mag Carb? Also, does anyone recommend anything so the throttle valve moves freely. I saw something about bushings but I dont know what they are. I'm pretty lost.
Thanks in advance.

You are sure? What would the reasoning of changing the mag nipples? How would i connect the hoses if they are pointing in opposite directions?
I appreciate your help.
Sorry I'm new to the Seadoos.
