good deal Dave, make sure they tune it while they are there.

[Dave Shepard]

They are going to do everything, including all adjustments.

I feel your pain. Ive played this detroit game before not fun.

I don't know if the skidder is out of the shop yet, they were waiting on a couple of oil lines that run under the engine somewhere. Total bill I think he said was $2800, which included three new holes, plus completely rebuilding the head, and all labor done in his shop. No crank or camshaft work was needed. I think that was pretty reasonable for on site service.

Now days, 3K or so is pretty minor for any medium truck/equipment with labor from a trusted source, and a few parts in my mind.

[Dave Shepard]

That's what we thought, especially considering the travel time. I don't know how many visits it took, at least two.

[coxy]

hope you have good luck with it  ;D

2800 is a good price for that done at a shop.
