I ask so i have an Idea when i call my dealership, to know if their Wayyy overpriced or avg.!
dealer told me that the valve check is a 3 hour job, at around $250. Carb setup (which I assume includes a sync) is about 2 hours. When I asked about the 7500mi (12,000km) valve check, the service manager told me that as long as it's not ticking when it's cold it probably doesn't need it done, so I'm not going to bother. I told him that i'm still getting a bit of a hesitation around 8-9k rpm, and he suggested a carb setup, so i think i'll get that done first and see where i get from there.
