If it is stock with the correct distributor with the retard vacuum working as it should, then it is 5 deg after TDC with vacuum hoses connected @850 RPM.

the correct vacuum hoses are the key , along with non leaking vacuum advance

not sure how you can book it into a garage but they dont know how to set it up.

thats no different to you using the labour charge money to buy an ebay special timing light and doing it yourself!
