Hey Chris,

     I've got the bill in front of me for replacing my clutch slave cylinder
(during my recent trip to
Noava Scotia). Labour is $23.11. I watched him do it (and helped him bleed it)
took about 20 minutes. Mind
you, this guy knows and loves vanagons........How long does your guy figure???

Cheers,

related)?
