Ace Automotive & Fuel Systems, Inc. 975 Richard Avenue, Santa Clara, CA 95050

"Brought my '78 Datsun B210 to them for some idle issues and tune up. They diagnosed the issue with the carb, cleaned it up, tuned the car, and fixed/notated any other issues they came across during their time with the car. Communication was amazing, work was impeccable, and staff is extremely friendly and caring. 100% recommend Ace for any carburetor/engine problems, I wont be taking my cars anywhere else."

"Very happy with my experience here. I have an old 1992 Mitsubishi box truck that had a diesel leak at the high-pressure fuel distributor. Although my truck is old, it's under the GVWR for CARB restrictions on diesel trucks. So I really wanted to keep it running. Plus, I didn't want to spend $40 to $60k on a replacement truck. Found ACE online. Made an appointment, then brought it in. Long story short, truck was repaired sooner than I expected, cheaper than what I anticipated, AND less than what I was quoted. No more leak. Truck is running good. If I need any other service on my truck, ACE IS THE PLACE!!! Thanks guys!!! Very happy customer."

"This shop is legit. They handled my older truck with care and fixed issues others could not. Honest and prompt."

"In December of 2022, Ace Automotive and Fuel Systems worked on my 1985 Ford F-250 truck, which had approx.105K miles, because it had issues starting and running. My truck was in that shop for a total of 22 days and after paying $1,726.24 it still had the same problem. When it appeared that they could not repair the truck where I could depend on it to start and run, I in person went to the shop and spoke to the owner, Allen Amstutz, and requested a full refund. He immediately declined to make a refund of any kind saying that he had been in business for 40 years. At that time, I was prepared to accept any reasonable refund including paying him for his actual out-of-pocket cost for parts and labor. After he made it clear to me that any type of refund would not be considered, I decided to file a Small Claims Lawsuit for the total amount of $1,726.24. I also contacted THE CALIFORNIA BUREAU OF AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS in conjunction with the Small Claims Lawsuit. Long story short, we went to court on June 30, 2023, and Allen Amstutz was ordered to give me a full refund of $1,726.24. Instead, he filed an appeal, with no additional evidence, which was conducted on August 30, 2023. He also lost the appeal and was ordered to pay me the total refund of $1,726.24. Allen Amstutz is a very stubborn businessman, and I don't think that he knows that much about repairing motor vehicles, as he probably doesn't work on vehicles himself. After owning cars most of my life, I found out that the proper protocol when complaining about mechanical work that was performed on your vehicle by an Automotive Repair Shop that is not satisfactory, the best thing to do is to contact THE CALIFORNIA BUREAU OF AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS. That agency is like the IRS to Automotive Repair Shops and most automotive repair shops do not want to deal with THE CALIFORNIA BUREAU OF AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS. Any repair shop that lost a lawsuit and did not attempt a compromise before the lawsuit would NOT be thinking of their future in that business because of the negative repercussions and publicity that would be generated as the direct results of that lawsuit. If you take your vehicle to ACE AUTOMOTIVE AND FUEL SYSTEMS for repairs and you are not satisfied, TAKE THEM TO COURT, because you have nothing to lose, and they have your money. I will never take my vehicle or refer anyone to Ace Automotive and Fuel Systems for repairs. BTW, I ended up repairing my own vehicle and it now runs perfectly."

"Dropped off carb for 64 Impala SS. They gave me a quote and the final price stayed within quote. A few days later I had carb on car and running like a champ.would recommend again. Friendly staff and very clean shop."
