Recommendation needed

[nerobo]

Im having a few running problems with the Chim, its a 4.0HC. Im after a recommendation for somewhere close to me in the North East where i can take the car to have the ignition timing set up correctly and have a play to get it running nice for the summer. Im getting bad shunting between 2000 - 3000 RPM. This has only happened since the last place i took the car too set the timing up according to the rover timing marks. I have spoke to a mechanic at TVR Power and he has advised the timing to be retarded by a few degrees due to the cam been used. The cam on the car is a (TVR885)

Thanks Graeme

Hexham Horseless Carriages get a lot of good press on here. Might be worth a call.

I know it may be a bit of a trek but Raceproved in Sheffield have a very good reputation and a rolling road setup as well

Scratch a reference, loosen a nut and twirl dizzy a little bit. It's no more than a 10 minute job?

Thanks for the advice, has anyone experienced any similar problems to this?

For all his succinct use of words Spend is giving you good advice.
If the timing is out just a bit it isn't difficult to undo the dizzy and move it a fraction to alter the timing and see if it improves things.
Since it has already been timed correctly according to the book and yet it is still not right, with some patience and the right sized spanner in the glovebox you can probably get the timing pretty damned close yourself
