Help! OX66 stuck full throttle

I was out the other day and when I put the engine full throttle it was binding up real bad, upon further investigation I found the linkage for the oil pump snapped off and the linkage was catching on wires and fuel lines and the engine was stuck at full throttle. So I putted in on one motor and ordered a new oil pump. Once I replaced the pump and start the engine, it immediately goes full throttle no matter what the throttle angle is. I have checked all of the throttle linkage, nothing is binding, and everything moves as advertised. So now I am lost at what's wrong. Has anyone experienced this problem? Or know any solutions? The motor is a 2000 Yamaha ox66 saltwater series 150, many thanks in advanced for any help
 
What is the position of the accelerator cam and accelerator rod lever while in neutral? Sounds like something somewhere is not correctly installed. Since you have twins, compare linkage to the good engine.
