How long would it take a mechanic to do these repairs?

1.)Order 4 SUV tires

2.) Do a brake job

3.) Change the camshaft sensor...(causing check engine light)



The vehicle is a 1999 ford explorer. How long would it take to get this done? On average..How long would it take a mechanic to do these repairs?the tires are easy, should only be 10-15 minutes to call in. The brake jobis more involved, you didn't say if only one axle or all the way around, and it will depend on how bad everything is. If it is just replacing the front pads and the rotors are ok, about an hour or so. If the rotors need to be turned, or the calipers need to be replaced it will take proprtionately longer. As far as the cam sensor, you didn't say which engine you have, but I don't remember them being too difficult to get at on the Fords, should only mount with 1 or 2 screws and unplug the connector,...20-30 mins.
