Hi all,
I recently bought a 94 Cruiser and am trying to get all my baselining activities sorted out... I've read through a lot of posts, and have a huge list of things that need to be done, but i'm not sure what i should take on myself and what I should take to get done at a shop. Time and money are the obvious constraints, and i don't have a lot of either unfortunately. So...I think it'd be great to have a resource that categorizes all typical cruiser repairs, baselining activities, and PM tasks by:
1) est. cost to DIY (parts/tools),
2) est. cost to get done professionally,
3) time required to DIY,
4) level of technical proficiency with a wrench (i'm thinking like a 1 - 5 scale here)
Does such a thing exist? It may be ambitious/presumptuous for a newbie to suggest, but I'd think something like this would be a great FAQ resource, and I'd be glad to help compile data
Thoughts?
Thanks!
Mike
