Default 99 Polaris Xplorer 400 carburetor issues?

We are having issues with our 99 Polaris xplorer 400. It will not idle. We were trying to buy a new carburetor online but couldn't find one. Will we need to get a rebuild kit or are the new carburetors still available? Anything aftermarket that would work?

Old Polaris Tech always has links to good carb rebuild kits. Rebuilt OEM carbs are generally better than cheap aftermarket carbs, plus rebuild kits are cheap.

Don't buy a knockoff Chinese carb that can be 50/50 on working right plus jets may not be the same. Rebuild your better quality Mikuni carb for less than an aftermarket one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/03-407-Shin...1aoF4P&vxp=mtr
