Default JS 550 electrical problem

hey guys i recently bought myself a new jet ski anyway i fired the banger up and it seems it wont run much under half throttle. so i started checking out wireing and things because i own 2 jet skis the same. not sure if they are the same year
but the look allmost identical except slight differnt decals. anyways what i have noticed between the 2 is the wires that run into the ignition box seem to be differnt. the 2 starter wires on the jet ski i just bought pug in differnt spots and one set of wires is missing all together. so i looked at where the wire that is not there would normally go and it goes to this fuel compenent i have no idea what it does though. that where i need your expertise guys.also the jet ski i bought doesnt charge battery can you tell me how you test it
i think you put an ohms meter on the stator but i cant remember..
anyway have a look at the pictures and see if you can tell me what is not right.
jet ski A is the jet ski that is not currently running well
jet ski b runs perfect
thanks to any help you can provide...
just to let you know some half assed mechanic said he tried to tune it not long before i bought it off my mate he also did the wireing its possible he fucked it right up but please take a look i can get more pictures also..

Take the orange and black wires that r cut and that goes on the bottom connecter. Then take the blue and black and connect 2 the top left connection. Then take the last orange and white wire connect 2 top right try that that should fix the problem.

the cut wires are the rev limiter
who cares where they go as long as they are plugged to the correct color inside the box
buy a manual is what u need to to first!

thanks for that mate. but any ideas as to what might stop the engine from running any lower then half throttle. soon as it get below around half cuts out instantly. is it possible for a bad diaphram i the carby to do that..
