Re: Carb Kits
Does Napa include the float perhaps?
Wherever you get it make sure it is a reputable brand!

Re: Carb Kits
Thanks for the reply duck. I went ahead and bought the autozone kit which is made by sorensen/standard ignition. Napa was going to have to order theirs. Looks like a good quality kit. Does not contain a float, this is a rebuild i am doing this weekend. Thanks!

Re: Carb Kits
I would rather walk than spend one penny at autozone.

Re: Carb Kits
some of the reasons napa is higher is because they are or could be indepentantly owned. and they stand behindthier parts way better than az. they also have a better quality part than az. az gets all of thier stuff primarily from china. to make the prices lower for resale.
