About how how much should it cost to fix a timing chain or starter on 1995 cavalier?

Question:
I have 1995 Chevy Cavalier. It has about 180,000 miles on it.
I had a couple of friends look at it (not mechanics). They seem to think it is either the starter or the timing chain. I would like to know some ballpark numbers about how much it would cost in parts in labor if I had a new starter or timing chain put in.
I would just like to have a general idea of what it would cost to have either done. I live in a fairly rural area so the place I would take it to would be a reglar body shop not a chain or a real fancy one. I just don't want to be taken. I don't mind paying a reasonable price so Thank You for any advice.

What's a good website to find performance parts for my 2000 honda civic si?

Neither should be expensive or difficult,if it's the starter a used one can be obtained for a few bucks and are generally simple to replace.
Timing chains are rare,usually a belt is required anew one is a must though but you can buy pattern parts from a motor store,but fitting must be done correctly otherwise your engine could be destroyed.
But you dont say what the symptons are?

Which is a better car? A Dodge Nitro SLT or a Toyota Tacoma X-tra Cab Prerunner V6?

Not sur eon a cavalier. But I had the same issue with my 1992 Chevrolet Corsica and they qouted me a minimum of $519 just for the timing chain.

Hi,I think you should take it to a shop & have a real mechanic look at it.Could be something simple rather than throwing parts at it.Good luck
