Repair time guide

[Cohiba54]

Another question for those in the small engine repair business.

Where can i find a time/labor charge guide for service and or repair.
for now we are using this but this is what we have come up with and we are wondering if we are within the norm or are we way off.

Examples-
lawn more blade sharpen and balance = 1/4 hr/$15
spark plug & air filter change = 1/4 hr/$15
oil change =1/4 hr/$15

What I'm looking for is a more complete listing of service and repairs over all.

Any info provided is highly appreciated.

I'm not aware of a "flat rate" book for lawn equipment, although it seems like there ought to be one out there somewhere.

A few years ago (about 10) there was a company working on a flat rate manual for all the major brands in one location. I think the cost was around $500
