Just my opinion, for what it may be worth. Buy a USED 2100 and a NEW KIT. This is the easiest carb to rekit that I can think of. Clean it really well and blow out all the passages and you are good to go. Pete

Why not look on Craigslist? I bet you can find carbs all day long. Might get a free engine with it!!

How much do you want to lose? 450 if the carb is bad (150 for the clone plus 300 (or more) for a real replacement). Yes, it may work out but based on the reviews. I would stay away. Good reviews are known to be made by those who have a vested interest in the sale of the product, not an independent third party.

That is some really nasty looking pot metal. I'd rather pay twice the price for a real one that will last. I wouldn't trust one on my lawn mower.

Well if I buy one I will let you all know the build quality. Everything that I can find is assembled in Mexico with parts made parts from who knows where.

China was obvious when I looked at them. I would rather buy a holley 2300 right now but I am on a limited income since I just retired and I am waiting on the VA to pull their heads out of their rears and finally send me disabilty pay. I am just curious if someone has ever ran these china carbs. I have an old holley R-7454 that is ready to go but finding the right adapter to go from a spread bore base to the ecz-9425-a intake. I am waiting on spring so I can get the slab poured for my shop and until I get my shop up I don't have access to my mill to just make an adapter. I normally won't buy a used carb even for rebuild because you never know what the previous owner did to them.

Can you provide a link? A quick search doesn’t bring up ‘Rally’.

Has anyone tried running any of the autolite 2100 carbs off ebay that are made by rally and such? If so are they any good? I need a cheap carb for a motor for temp use.
