Hi chaps,

I recently bought a 306TD for SWMBO. It's a '97, but in decent nick, 2
prev owners and 81k miles. Anyway, it looks likely that it's going to be
the family runaround, with me doing a good chunk of the driving, so I'm
thinking of things to give it a bit more poke.
I previously had a 405 with the same lump, and had that fettled by a
company down in Leics somewhere - it made it quite a bit quicker, and I'd
happily go back there, except that I'm living up in Durham now, so I'm
wondering if anyone knows of anyone in the Durham/Tees/Stockton area or
anywhere up to the Tyne who might be able to provide similar fettlage[1],
preferably without instant engine borkage?

I know Abo lurks round these parts somewhere and may have Local Knowledge,
but any suggestions welcome.

If it's an XUD on a Bosch pump, remove the anti-tamper plug for the mixture
screw, then screw the adjuster half a turn in (or maybe out for a bit of
black-smoke-action (or a quarter of a turn for less smoke but more
oooomph...)
