Where can i get a rebuild for these carbs!!!! I've posted before and got some good advice, so now i need more help. I flushed all the fuel, and all the oil. Went to the sea doo shop, and bought the $55 jug of oil, made sure it was all right. Brand new NGK Plugs. Filled her up with some 93 Octane and lugged her down to the lake. I turned the fuel selector to on, and began to crank, was starting to smell like gas and the water around the back was turning blue! So, i took the plugs out, and again, fuel poured out of the cylinders, so after turning the selector valve to off, and cranking, got almost all of the fuel out, put the plugs back in, fired right up(still in off), got on the throttle, rolled the select valve to full ON, and as suggested, turned the idle set screw in to increase the idle speed. It worked, but it has to maintain a higher RPM now, and it still dies in about 40-45 seconds of no throttle attention. When it dies, it floods out again unless you shut the fuel off. But, while it's running, you can tear across the water all day, engine never missing a beat! So, is it the floats in the bowls? Screws? Adjustments? Oh, and it was smoking when idles, but not at all when riding. Someone knowledgeable help, thank you!
 
tear carbs apart, better yet, being a 90', order rebuild kit, parkeryamaha.com, and get new "needles". Yours are stuck open, causing it to flood.
 
You say it's the Needles? Even though it runs great out on the water? I mean great take off and stops, and go again, just won't idle, and smokes to no end.
