Antifreeze Leak????

[johnckhall]

I don't know what to say, except that if I could get $500 to change a TBI intake gasket, I'd start taking on customers.

I guess in Bidenomics, that's an OK deal. Seems excessive to me, but what do I know?

Technically, the labor charge for the diagnosis and TBI gasket replacement was $399 . Since the leak was on the back side of the manifold, it wasn't readily evident that was the problem (likely, but not evident to me at least). The rest was parts + tax on the parts (gasket, oil, filter, coolant, TBI gasket, temp sending unit). $399 may still be high for labor, but it beat me having to do it. At least I know it's done right and truck runs great!

^ i think that's the most important part when getting work done on one's vehicle.

sadly, around here i haven't found anybody except me.
