Stan the Man!

General Info
Approximately 80% of our business is computerized fuel systems. Due to today's technological advances, automobiles are becoming more complex. Some of them talk to you; and, some even talk to themselves. Most U.S. manufacturers as well as most Japanese manufacturers have on-board computers in their cars' fuel systems, with sensors to evaluate throttle position, coolant temperature, oxygen content in exhaust, engine load and many others. All of this to calculate proper fuel mixture and correct timing for any given circumstances and driving conditions. With these computerized fuel systems, there is no way of knowing what your automobile needs without a diagnosis. This is why we offer customers a diagnosis and estimate first! Carburetors Technicians at San Diego Carburetor have been rebuilding fuel systems expertly for decades. We have a large following of satisfied customers - some of whom, experienced our services upon opening our doors in San Diego 25 years ago. We do not use existing market carburetor kits; we rebuild original carburetor bodies in foreign and domestic cars, motorhomes and boats by using individual new parts. Standard warranty is one year. Every repaired vehicle is set up to comply with state smog requirements, making it easy for you to get your certification at a licensed smog station. We also rebuild many popular fuel injectors in use today. Ask about our "Injectors to Go!"

I went in For work in my 1965 dodge van. And I saw a 1970 dodge van in the back of his shop so know I was at the right place. Within an hour he said it was fuel pump. Bing bang boom. All done in less than an hour. Everything works fine and I got a military discount. Highly recommended.

I have a 29 year old Mazda and failed smog test in late April. I got 3 recommendations from a Normal Heights service station on where to have car repaired. Called one, made appointment but after thinking about the conversation decided to call San Diego Carburetor. My instinct told me to take my car to SD Carburetor which I did. Very glad I did. Stan was mindful of my budget (retired) and kept me apprised of cost. More importantly, he explained what he was doing on my car and reason. Honest person; busy shop, felt my car was in good hands. Car passed its smog test and I feel it runs smoother. It took time but Stan's work and experience was worth it. I definitely recommend San Diego Carburetor.

Overall

I just wanted to say what a great job you and your team did on my 1985 El Camino. Since you rebuilt the carburetor the car has never run better. On my drive from San Diego to my new home in Dallas I experienced greater performance and gas mileage. The car starts easier and runs smoothly. In short, no problems. It was the best money I have spent on this resoration. You guys really know what you are doing. Thank you

My wife has a 1992 Nissan Pathfinder which runs pretty smooth. Once in a while she rides with me in my truck. The other day, driving on the freeway in my truck, she says to me, “I noticed my antenna is falling off.” This is the truth, she really thought we were in the Pathfinder. I had to remind her we were riding in my truck. We both started to laugh. Thanks again for the great service.

I finally got what I paid for in a carburetor job. What a difference in the job you did on my 1980 Chevrolet truck.

I just got my '65 T'Bird home safely with its re-built carburetor, and I want to send you this to tell you in writing how pleased I am with your prompt efficiency. The car runs like a dream. Many thanks & best wishes.

Thanks again for the outstanding professional service you did on the carburetor of my 1965 Pontiac Bonneville. I took it on a "test run" from San Diego to Denver, Colorado. It performed perfectly. (and still does!) I'll stop by and see you in April after I return from overseas.

I want to thank you once more for your fine, conscientious, reasonably price, and extra effort in making my "Bomb" safe and more cost-efficient for my girls and me. In the month that we celebrate "giving", I feel that my Christmas has already come thanks to your work and wise counsel. Life is full of character building, wallet-lightning challenges, and you've helped us significantly with this hurdle!
