Are labor times listed somewhere corresponding to the individual FSM repair jobs? I have the CD with Steve Nervig's index, but haven't come across a standard labor time schedule there. Am I just overlooking it? At the moment, I'm particularly interested in replacing the viscous fan bearing (FSM job #20-3140), but I'd like to have a source of labor times generally for future reference. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world--those who understand binary and those who don't

that can be available through alternative sources such as Chilton, All-Data, etc (as well). i may have seen similar in the Hollander interchange manual but a little fuzzy on that. so many numbers, so few RAM left

For anyone else wondering the same thing, another MBCA member pointed out that Steve Nervig has an updated index (ver 3.2) available on his website that does now contain the labor time guide. Interesting and useful stuff.
