I had duel quad 58 Carter's. The 1st was "non salvageable" and in peices and the 2nd had been rebuilt twice before I shipped it to National. The 2nd needed the top polished to match the 1st and I did not trust the previous rebuilds. As it turned out the 2nd had a cracked base. National found the parts and polished the top to match the first. The 1st Carter was actually "non salvageable" not worth the effort, a real mess. National took care of it. They sent me the defective parts including the floats. On my request, they met both function and asthetic requirements needed for auction. My next best option would cost over three times what I paid national. Exceptional. read more

This review is for all Tech Geeks who love tinkering with old vehicles. (But I'm appreciative if you're not one but still decide you want to read and comment. :) ) My '72 C10 Custom Pickup (one owner) had been dying on me and was getting more difficult to start. I knew it was the carburetor and after a little research I found this place. The Yelp reviews sounded good and convinced me that if I wanted to keep my original carburetor, then this is where I needed to go to get it refurbished and rebuilt. Most people mail their carburetor to them and after it's done this place mails it back. I decided to drive it to them and at the same time I could visit my daughter and eat some great pizza (good plan). I dropped my Rochester Quadrajet off on a Thursday afternoon and Peter the employee told me it should be finished in approximately 7-10 business days. A week and a half later I was called by their office stating my carburetor was finished and ready to be picked up. I picked it up exactly 2 weeks after I had dropped it off. I was amazed at the transformation - it looked brand new! I paid them ($300.95 - including tax), and the next day installed it. Everything went back into place nicely and they give me a free gasket. I did have to purchase a vacuum gauge ($28) to make the proper fuel adjustment for the optimum vacuum - which was no big deal. My truck is now running smoothly and I'm very happy I decided to use these guys. I highly recommend them. Thanks for reading and have a Super Chevy Day! read more

See all

Good service. Carb works great.. I ordered over a holiday weekend so it was not super fast but I got it the day after it shipped.

I sent a very tired Holley 750 to National carburetor for a rebuild and what I received back is a beautiful, ready to go carburetor. I was very happy and I thought the price was right too. I have dealt with National Carburetor in the past and I have been happy every time. Good communication and they always answer my questions. thanks read more

Outstanding****** Talked to Peter told him my story that I had been told I had a crack in the in the main body. Pete said, send it in and we will take a look and I will call you. The is a matching #s 56 Corvette and I didn't want to give up on it and didn't believe it was crack. Several carb experts had looked at it find problem. Since non of the experts could fix the last one decided was cracked. I sent to Peter and he called me in 3 days and told it wasn't cracked and would have it rebuilt for me in a couple days. Paid him $384.95 which included freight. Again, I got a call from Peter with shipping info and tracking # About a 2 week turn around. Received carb in heavy duty box screwed to 3/4 plywood base. it was spotless and the air horn assembly looked brand new. Received an air cleaner gasket along with intake gasket plus gromets for linkage. They treated me like I was the only carb in their shop. Bolted on and started first crank.

It is simply amazing that one of the premiere International Carburetor warehouse and repair/rebuild/overhaul companies is located right here in Jacksonville FL off Bowden Road! For guys like me who own one of the last Honda Accords (LX model year 1989) equipped with a carburetor, discovering that National Carburetor was local JAX was simply godsend when I was in dire need of carburetor overhaul/replacement. It's been many years since I did business with Eddie the owner and his crackerjack team but I remember it like yesterday. I called and spoke to Ryan who confirmed that they had my model carburetor on hand so they placed the order for the overhauled carburetor. It was ready by the end of week and only cost me $239. There was No core charged because I turned in my old carburetor core and you have a lifetime warranty on your carburetor for the life of your car! BTW, the carburetor is working great and running like new! I highly recommend National Carburetor if you are in need of quality carburetor rebuild/ overhaul/ replacement services! read more

I ordered a carburetor from this company for my vehicle, but this company could not ship it within my required three day ship deadline. I informed their order department directly IN WRITING in an email to CANCELL my order. NINE DAYS Later my $280 was STILL being UNLAWFULLY HELD by this Company!! If I hadn't called, my money would've been held indefinitely since they had no records of the transaction and were surprised they stil were holding my money. SLOPPY BUSINESS!! I contacted this company to demand my money released. The supervisor there informed me that he could not find any record of my order despite my order confirmation number sent originally from them being in my email inbox. Finally, the guy found my order mysteriously placed under a different order Number. Sloppy Records!! That fukin guy had the attitude that it wasn't a big deal to hold a customer's money for eight fukin days without ever shipping a product. GTFO!! If this company builds carburetors as SLOPPY as they keep records, I am happy to NOT have willingly payed for and received their product!! And I don't care how many damn years this so called SLOPPY RECORD KEEPING "king" has been in business either!! My Middle Finger is standing Tall at this company!! Shady! Sloppy! Unprofessional! read more

Sent in a very complicated carburetor that was non-functioning for a rebuild. They took a week and a half to go through it. I reinstalled it and it fired right up and idle beautiful the only issue I ran into was the hot idle was a little high but some adjustment is normal on a carburetor. read more

It's always great to do business with someone that takes care to do the job right. We are a Auto repair shop in Jax, and have used N.C. over the years for replacement carbs and difficult problems, and our latest interaction was just what we are used to. Had an old corvette that the owner had purchased 3 different carbs for, and couldn't get any of them to work right. One call, 2 days, and the unit provided was not only less expensive than all the others, but was virtually plug and play, fixed all the issues we had. Thanks again, guys! read more

I found this company on line after a search for Weber Carburetors, should have looked at the reviews. Sent carb in for rebuild on a Thur, the received it the next Tue (USPS tracking). They called me the following Tue to get cc info. Received carb 2 weeks later. Looked great, could not start without major adjustments. Still won't idle. Emailed them and asked for help, the said to call a certain tech after 12:30, call twice, 1st time not in call back, 2nd time he just left. Asked if someone else I could talk with - no call next week. I Have given up and have purchased a new carb, lost $200 on nothing. Would not recommend them to anyone read more

I ordered a rebuilt 4180C carburetor for an 83 Ford with a 7.5L engine. I followed up a couple weeks later when I hadn't received it and was told that there was a delay due to a lack of cores. Fine, I wasn't in a hurry and told the sales person "Don't rush it, I'd rather have it late than get it quick and have a problem". The salesman assured me that they thoroughly test the carbs before sending them out and the production manager ruled with an iron fist. I add that note because when I got the carb and installed it - it had a problem. The electric choke operated backwards. I won't go into the hell it was to diagnose that problem but after a couple phone calls to the National Carburetor techs and a lot of research on the internet, I figured it out. Note, "I" figured it out. I got some clues from what the NC techs were saying, but I had to sift through the myriad of information they gave me to determine likely causes. Once I knew what the problem was, I called, let them know the problem and asked "do they check the choke operation before shipment?" Of course the answer was "yes" and of course that answer was BS because the choke was the problem and since it's a pretty straightforward mechanism, there was no ambiguity. On the bright side, once I told them the choke was operating backwards, they offered to send a replacement and I got it 4 days later. When I got it, I checked to see if the coil unwound in the right direction - it did, so I tried to put it on the carb. The new choke was not as deep as the old one so the choke flap linkage hit the coil mounting plate. Another disappointment but instead of asking for a new choke, I shortened the linkage with a Dremel tool. Tested with the engine off - it worked correctly. Let it cool. Fired up the engine and now it looks like I'm good to go. I'm giving them 3 stars because besides the choke issue, the carb ran right out of the box. For the price, it was worth buying a rebuilt carb versus rebuilding my old one since they replace the throttle bushings and test the carb (except for the choke). The sales guys seem knowledgeable about carbs in general and I was able to talk to a tech when they didn't have the answer. read more
