That would suck to have to pay someone to do things like this. My friend paid some place $200 to change his spark plug wires where the wires only cost $15 or so and I could've done it in 10 minutes..

Shops charge like $90/hour and then usually make up how many hours it actually takes. Like when I went to get an O2 bung welded on. Took 15 minutes. Heard them in the background "Just charge 'em an hour labor."

YEA HES RIGHT im a service writer and manager of a shop in VA. ill tell you this all shops are rip offs. like my shop i get in trouble if i dont over sell by at least an hour witch means 85 extra for the customer. an lil jobs like tune up PEOPLE DO IT YOUR SELF. cost us under 100 for tuneup parts, 1/2 to 1 hour of labor. and cost you 400-550.
