I had requested that the dealer out here do the same thing. They also told
me about $200.00. This is WAAAAAAYYYYY too much money for a simple $65.00
injector cleaning. (They also told me it'll cost $585 for the Dbl-Roller
Timing Chain Replacement...and they wanted $175 for the chain itself.)

If anyone is interested, here's the part number for the timing chain:

MOPAR Performance Timing Chain: P/N P5249267 - $78. (Fits V6 and V8 engines)
