    Carb Kit Pricing

    I'm rebuilding the 2150 on my 1990 Wagoneer for the first time and was shopping around for carb kits. Is there a reason that the Napa kit (CRB 25152) at $73 is twice as much as the Advance Auto kit at $33 and three times the Autozone at $21 (both sell the GP-Sorenson96-437a)? Thanks.

    Just a guess but the NAPA kit might include the power valve and the others dont.

      I got a power valve in my kit from advance. Had everything.

        Because NAPA thinks they are the dealer. They are higher on everything.

          I don't know what the difference is, but I just got this kit on ebay for $18 (there are others available): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...#ht_771wt_1167

          Mine came with a power valve, but I haven't done the rebuild yet, so I don't know what, if anything, is not included.

              I paid $38 or something at CarQuest when I last bought one, power valve included.

                Thanks for the help. I went with the Advance kit since I had a coupon. Hopefully with the help of Ristow's write up I can take advantage of the nice weather tomorrow afternoon and get this done.
