Marv: go to the local library. You can find the same books (Mitchell) they use. What DC said is correct. Time labor guides are just that. It's just a time the "average" mechanic can do the job. Someone that does them all the time can do it in an hour or less while someone with little experience will do it in 2 hrs. Labor time guides are mostly used by warranty companies. They only pay book times. If you feel that you got taken (by the looks of if you did) you can file a complaint with the BB or Consumer Affairs depending what state you live in.
