There is a time for a water pump, and there is a time for a timing
belt - and there is an "add-on" time for common combinations. You
might see 2.6 for a water pump. and 3.3 for a timing belt - with an
"add-on" to the timing belt of .3 for the water puimp - or possibly an
extra 1.0 because to replace the timing belkt does not require opening
the cooling system, while changing the water pump does. The numbers
will often be different for w or w/o AC, ot from automatic to standard
trtans because of complications involved with the different options.

You seem to know more than everyone else, as this is all true.
It's complicated how any one shop charges the time.
But that's not what I'm asking.

I just want the flat rate time. Online. If it exists.

SOME shops ARE crooks and bill the full time for the timing belt plus
the full time for the water pump. But then there are plumbers and
electricians that overcharge too - not to mention Lawyers and
accountants.

Yes. I know about this where you explained it well that there is a flat
rate for the water pump, and a flat rate for the timing belt, but if you do
them both, then there are two ways to calculate the flat rate.
