Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Mornin' Y'all My 99 C2 seems to have a small leak from the right side of the engine. I suspect that it's the spark plug tube o-ring. Just a couple of drops after I drive the car, not a constant leak. Anyway, I did a search on the board but I did not see a typical cost to repair this. I don't have the tools to repair this myself. Does anyone have a good idea of how much this costs to repair (or number of hours labor)? Thanks for the help.

POST 2Original post

Next time you have the plugs changed, have them replace the O rings. Should be minimal additional labor charge since the tubes pop right out. Actual additional time would not be more than 30 minutes. What they will charge in hours....your guess us as good as mine.

POST 3Original post

with a plug change i charge an extra half hour ti an hour depending on how much i have to clean just the o rings is 3 hours
