>Hi Terry, Is that based on 1.5 hours for a tuning?< I have a set tuning fee. Whether I spend 45 minutes or "1.5 hours", my fee is still the same. On average, I take about 55 minutes for a complete tuning, not including PR, which tacks on another 20 minutes or so. Most everything else like repairs and regulation is billed by the hour. I normally will not charge for minor stuff that takes only a few minutes to complete.
