What should that run me? It's always nice to have some kind of comparison when getting estimates

Thanks
A local independent foreign car shop charged me $75, which I thought was very reasonable. I think it's very much worth doing since otherwise I would have thrown a $300 MAF sensor at it. I go by the old pilots adage of "believe your instruments". I find it surprising that so many people assume the O2 or MAF sensors are bad and doing them first instead of looking for leaks.
