Default NEED HELP! WHAT SHOPS CAN HELP?

i need to get my car fully tuned up, and the valves tightened/tuned. my car sounds like a mercedes diesal. euro taxi style.

i called abacus and they told me to call accuracy auto in chesapeake bc thats where the guy who specializes in that works now. the dilemma is, i work monday - friday, and weekends is the only time i could get it done, and that shop is closed on weekends.

i need help. i need to get my car worked on and possibly inspected

i hate to break it to you but most shops are only really open M-F and close early on sat. you are gonna have to figure out a way to be without your car for a day or two, only way you are going to be able to have it worked on. especially since the car has to sit overnight before you do the valve lash.
