$85. This wouldn't be the first time I did "preventive" maintenance. 
Out of sheer curiosity, would you or anyone else check the operation of those valves on your own car? I'd really appreciate it. Watch the manifold valve (you can see while standing over the engine) as you slowly rev the engine (you can just push on your throttle linkage). Mine opens right above fast idle. Either the literature is wrong, or both my new and old change-over valves are bad (unlikely) or there's some other problem on my car (possible but still unlikely).
