MY Tune Up ?
OK, I got all the parts I need to do a compleat tune up from toyota. I'm going to be taken it to my shop to get done. My question is, how much do you all think I should be paying for this with me supplying all the goods?
Thanks for your help.
This is the type of rig being worked on.

I'd say no more than $100, I think a lot of shops would supply parts and get it done for $175 in my area. Some shops really don't like installing parts they didn't provide, and most will not warranty the work as well so ask ahead of time. I know these are cheap parts, but you never know.
P.S. get a small socket set. I've got a Stanley 210 pc. (I think, something like that) and it has almost everything I need to do a LOT of stuff on my toy. Everything from 1/4 to 3/4 sockets/ratchets, metric and standard, common wrenches, allens etc. I'm pretty sure it cost like $80. I've been using it for around 4 years now and no problems. Stanley makes a great tool for a shadetree mechanic, you don't NEED snap on etc.... Get a Toyota FSM and you will be amazed at how much stuff you can fix if you've never even seen it before Ask me how I know.
