May be buying a 964 a far distance from me. Garage which normally works on car recommended a valve adjustment prior to a leak down test and before I take car on long road trip [> 1250 miles] Car has 131,000 miles and evidently runs well. Car has been maintained at a good small independant Porsche garage. I am assuming a leak down test is about $200 so roughly 2 hours of labor so what I want to know is how many hours is a valve adjustment by an experienced Porsche garage?
Quoted $1100 from DeMan, NY (back in '05)
Paid $867 at a reputable place in Ma
Now spend $76.25 on the Valve Gasket Kit from Pelican (wow! used to be $51.13)
