Re: Spring Service - Timing Belt and Valve Adjustment
'Primo claims they have a shim exchange program, but when I tried to do it last year the service guy was such a pain to work with that I just took them home and ordered a shim kit. I got one on here for around $250, and it was worth every penny.
If I were to do it again I'd still go with the shim kit. If that wasn't an option, I'd probably call Silverback first, they said they also have an exchange program.
As for the "exchange" both places charge something like $10-20 for an exchange. You turn in your shim and they give you the new one, but you still have to pay for it. Personally, if you have the down time (which if you do it now you probably do) I'd order the new one from the internet, keep the old one and slowly build your own shim kit. It honestly costs about the same, the only difference is you get to keep the shim and you have to wait a few days for shipping.
