Hello-

I just bought a 2000 seadoo challenger 14.5 feet with twin 85 hp rotax engines. paid 3800$ runs like a champ, but one of the engines idles high. the port engine ildes at around 1500-2000 rpm out of the water and the starboard idles at around 3500 out of the water. **what is the correct way to lower the idle rpm on the starboard engine.** or should I put the boat in the water to check the rpm? also, where can I find a shop manuel for this boat. i can only find challenger 18, 20 foot shop manuels for this year and speedster. am I missing something?

Thanks_
 
Put the boat in the water, and adjust the idle screw on the carb. The engines should be 1500 RPM with a load on them.
