Attachment II- Labor and Parts Information
LABOR ALLOWANCES
NOTE:
These labor times reflect a different repair procedure than the Workshop Manual for these model year vehicles. The major differences are that the oil pan is not removed on any vehicle and ROLOC(TM) bristle discs are recommended for gasket removal. Please follow the technical instructions on Attachment III. By following these instructions, the labor times are achievable. To assist technicians a video presentation highlighting the key steps of the repair is planned for the first quarter of 2000. Watch for details in the recall newsletter, which can be accessed through http://www.qcdealer.com/.
