Hello Jay:

If you are Doing the Labor, then the Cost is Usually Less than $20.00us Dollars. If my Shop were Doing the Repair, the Cost would be Approximately $85.00us Dollars. Please Remember that Shop Cost Vary from Location to Location. I Susgest you Contact your Local Small Engine Service Center for Information on this Repair. Send me the Model and Type or Spec Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Have a Happy Holiday Season and May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.
