As for the bottom portion, it wouldn't hurt to check yours out first. The throttle shafts may not be worn out at all. Take it off and see if the play is excessive.

My plan of action would be the check the throttle shafts, and if that is OK simply rebuild it myself with a set of professionally cleaned or new injectors, whichever is cheaper.
Yea x2 that's pretty much what I was thinking too man! Good luck with it all!
