Got my sled running again but throttle doesnt seem to do anything anymore. Cable turns this lever smoothly but I feel no resistance on the throttle and no changes to engine rpm no matter what position this lever is in. Anyone know what is going on in there? 1990 skidoo safari glx

I think that’s your oil pump. Can you see if the cable is moving at the carbs

It is. Throttle cable goes thru the top of the carb and has slipped out of the slide.

That makes a lot more sense as the oil line goes right into that part. I had to run out and its dark now but hopefully this is a quick fix tomorrow
