Carb problems/ Need rebuild - AFDan52 - 06-23-2010


I need my Boat carburetor rebuilt properly, does anyone know of a place or person that can do it and adjust it on the boat . The carb is a Holley 2300 2-barrel , I'm not any good with carburetors . Thanks for any help, I am going to check with Lee in Hyrum. But thought that there might be someone a little closer. Hopefully for a reasonable price.

Any half decent auto mechanic could rebuild it. Cost less than a boat mechanic.A Holley is a Holley is a Holley, whether its on a boat an airplane or a weed wacker.

Walleye Bob's correct, any good car mechanic should be able to work on your carb. And I have used Best Boat Service last summer and was happy with their work. Honest and dependable guys.

Are you certain your problem is carb and not timing or ignition?

Thanks guys, I tried to rebuild the carb myself and screwed it up somewhere. I've never been very good with fuel systems.

There is a guy that I read about recently on this board. I had him do some work on one of my motors and he did it quick and cheaper than I have paid else where. I will go to him again, plus he is in the local area. Here is his info: Custom Marine- 801-668-7473
