Who can time a TDi around Manchester?

So, just done the belts and pulleys on the 850TDi, surprisingly nothing went horrifically wrong. I don't actually think I've gashed my hands open once! *looks at front and back of hands* Nope :) Even the usually epically tight crank pulley bolt came straight out! Anyway, I bought an INA kit from Euro's, just shy of £90 with discount: Image Apparently they're OE suppliers. Hmm... Don't know about that. Was pleasantly surprised though to see that as well as both belts and all three tensioners, it also came with a new crank pulley bolt and fasteners for the pulleys too. Bargain, methinks :) The water pump seemed absolutely fine, so I left it for now. Anyway, it started absolutely fine afterward, but I'm a little down on power, especially higher up the revs, so I'm thinkng it needs timing properly with computer witchcraft. So, who's around Manchester that could have a butcher's in exchange for a few pictures of the queen?

Good effort fella Is that the dynamic timing bit of VOL FCR? http://www.ilexa.co.uk/diagnostic-tools/vol-fcr/38-vol-fcr-quick-guide.html

Aye, that's the one. Martin Smith has offered to do it for me, but would like to see if I can get someone a little closer to have a butcher's. Martin is a cheap date though! :lol:
