A local garage in town just quoted me £120 for cash to balance the carbs and re shim the valves.
New plugs didn't completely sort the running so carb clean next. The seller said he had stripped them although after finding several lose screws (inc battery terminal) I'm not confident that he would have done the job properly, if at all.
