Dennys Carb Shop

I have recently done business with Denny's Carb Shop. And I really wish I did some research on the forum before I did so. I have found posts Dating back to 2006 regarding his work. I sent him 2 distributors to be rebuilt and converted to electronic ignition, and 4 Carburetors 1 of which was off from a 4020 gas and the other 3 I was wondering if he was willing to purchase for cores.

The Carbs came back with one rebuilt and the others had the brass needle and seats removed from them and shipped back at my expense as they where not interested. Which is the problem as the rubber tip needle he used in the rebuilt one continues to swell and stick closed. When I called Denny's Carb Shop the lady that answers the phone is always Unhelpful and one of the most unpleasant and rude people I have ever talked to. I have never been so belittled. Its always the same old story that "you must have done something wrong" or "must have got dirt in it somehow. I then settled with the idea of just send me back my brass needle and seats and she called me a liar they would never do something like stealing.

Now the Electronic Ignitions One worked miraculously. But the JD A system will only run on one cylinder. No2 Cylinder is completely dead. Once again you call and are told that "you must have hooked it up wrong" well I'm sorry but if that was the case it would have burned out the whole unit, and this is not my first unit I have installed.

Nonetheless if you are considering dealing with Denny's Carb Shop. DON'T!! Seek out repairs else where. Reading through my rant, and the others dating all the way back to 2006 should give you a good sense of what you are getting into.

PS, if anyone related to Denny's Carb Shop in anyway is reading this. Please give me back my parts you withheld, and stop blaming your customers for poor workmanship. If your feeling generous send me another Ignition assembly. Thanks.

Thanks for posting, even though they have a terrible rep, I haven't seen anything on them here in a few years. It was time for a renewal. Sorry that it cost you $ to provide the service though.

I met him years ago as speaker at a club meeting. He was lucky to get out of there. Last year he had agreed to host a meeting for that same club when making out meeting schedual first of year. When I first got the schedual I told them I was very supprised (new officers that did not remember what had went on) that he would do it considering how things were before. A month and half before meeting he backed out that did not supprise me. I aranged a different meeting location at that time and this year we used the same meeting location. as it is the location of the club in next county on opening day of that show so the club members could get to meeting and still bring their items for the show and be in the parade thru town for opening the show.

Motec engineering tipton ind on web nice honest guy best carb repair I have experienced. I have no personal connection just business

Last year I was looking for a new main jet for my SMTA. Sent an email to Denny's to ask if they might have one. Got a very "terse" email back saying "we don't sell jets". I got what I needed from McDonald carburator. They and Steiner tractor tried to be very helpful. Seems like Denny's just didn't care

They must just keep finding new "suckers" through the internet. Denny's have been terrible for years. I have had several friends that thought they would be OK dealing with him. In all cases it was a bad idea.

We need to keep reminding people of how bad his business is.
