I bought a PDF Workshop manual on ebay and spent around $600 on tools and rebuilt the bugger myself. I've never looked back and have done all my own work since.
Nice work on going the rebuild path yourself shame it happened in a shit way. it doesnt even look like they checked the valve clearences on the other cylinders as well?
