Maybe check your local Yellow Pages, I managed to find a brilliant local tuner who just comes round does the timing and sets the carb up.

Yes, it's not perfect and when I get some £££ up together I will put it on the rollers - but until that point it's more than good enough. It's done 5,000 miles on a stock AAU needle, just set up by a mobile tuner.
