My daughter is traveling from San Diego and will be in the Sacramento area.

Their 86 Dodge B250 Van was having some issues and a “mechanic” in the Bay area did something to the carb. No idea what, but it would not run now, she said. Sounds like a vacuum leak from how she described it.

My daughter replaced the carb, but it all needs dialed in and she’s not quite that savvy. They’re making their way to her friends dads place in ElDorado Hills on a poorly adjusted, yet brand new, carb.

Looking for shop recommendations so she can get this mess behind her and eventually make it to Oregon.

Thanks in advance!!!

If she is going up to I-5 and can go through Chico there is an amazing mechanic just off 99 next to Sierra Nevada Brewing. B&M tune up.530-342-3668 Tell him Mopar Mike sent her doesn't open till monday. He is the man with the little screwdriver that makes all my cars go vroom.

Much appreciated! If she has to go that far north for all this then we’ll keep them in mind. If this keeps up, I’ll just make the four hour trip down there and figure it out for myself. Thanks for the reply. Means a lot from a long time member. 👍👍

I doubt Danny will be open with all this smoke.
