Anyone know how Ford Dealers figure labor costs on jobs? I know they have it built in to a software program; used to be a book. I just got a call from my Insurance adjuster, and after paying me for parts. I have $720. left over for Prep/Painting of the Hood. Prep and paint for the Air cleaner, Engine detailing to get the Fire Retardant out. Then what ever is left over goes to my labor?
I don't think it can be done?
Repairs needed:
Initial cleaning under hood.
Hood removal/prep/paint/replacement/alignment
Air Cleaner removal/prep/paint/replacement
Distributor removal/replacement (R/R)
Carb (R/R)
Coil (R/R)
Temp Sensor (R/R)
Wiring Harness (3 wire rebuild) (R/R)
Radiator Hose, upper (R/R)
Heater Hoses (R/R)
P/S Belt (R/R)
Partial Drain, refill of antifreeze
Fuel Filter (R/R)
Tuning of new Carb/Distributor
Final detailing- (soot everywhere)
I don't think I can get the hood and air cleaner painted at a shop for $720.- let alone have any left over for my Labor. What are your thoughts?
