When daughter was in college at the other end of the state I got a call from her one night. Her car was leaking oil under the valve cover. Local garage told her it would be $200 labor to put in a new gasket, because of having to take off AC and other things to get to the valve cover. Went and looked at another car like it I had and it had the least cluttered engine top I have ever seen. Called daughter and told her to take her phillips screwdriver and tighten the 12 screws holding the valve cover and that would probably fix the leak. It did, and I told her never to do business there again. I just wonder how much business some of these places loose because of their crooked business practices. KEH

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
