Yea, I've spent A LOT of money at Moyer Marine and I'm happy to help keep him
going. However, Boats are expensive and it seems these carburetors need to be
rebuilt quite often. So, he charges for the conveinience. I get it. I'm just
slightly annoyed that my brand new Moyer exchange engine with like 25 hours on
it is not running like a clock... Thanks for the feed back on Moyers prices.
Any insights on my idling issue? Danny

I rebuilt my entire A4 using Don's rebuild manual and his Amish machinists to
rebore the cylinders and remachine the head. Without Don Moyer, we Atomic Four
owners would be up a creek. If his parts are more expensive (I've never looked
elsewhere), in my opinion,�it's money well spent just to maintain his
expertise and knowledge. I learned a lot just attending one of his
seminars.�Rob

Hello all,
I'm looking into rebuilding my carb. �I'm having some idling issues and
It's getting better and better but I think It should be better still.
�When I looked inside the carb. �It was dirty and gritty...no
good,
I sprayed it all with carb cleaner. �Although it is better I want to
try a rebuild and more aggressive cleaning.
I've found the moyer rebuild kit at $87.00 + shipping then I found this one
for $26.00 and I could buy 3 for the less and get free shipping...

It seems it is even a better kit in that it has more parts, specifically, it
seems to have the throttle arm seal and cap in it.
Is moyer really just price gouging?
he even charges another $12.50 for his tech tip videos on trouble shooting you
carb. �I mean I'm all for a guy making a buck but, you'd think if he is
charging more than triple on parts, he could throw in the videos...
�I'll probably pay the $12.50 to see it, especially if I save all that
dough on the kit! �Then, I don't have to feel guilty about not giving
the guy my business... �I mean I'd hate to see him go out of business...
Anyway, maybe this is a substandard kit?
Also, I have a rebuilt carb that I did last year before I knew I was buying
the Moyer exchange engine. �So, I'll swap that in, I would just like to
have a rebuilt one on standby...
I also found a farm tractor supply selling the whole carb for $175.46
�Moyer wants $270

Any comments or suggestions are always appreciated! �I thought this
could be good infor for the other A4 boats... if there are any left LOL
