Defender 200Tdi Fuel Pump Timing

All,

Following on from an earlier post I cant affod (at the moment) to take
Kate to see a propoer diesel fuel injection mechanic or (better still)
down the road to Twisted Performance for a new Intercooler and setup.


So...
The engine was retarded, so I slackened the 3 holding bolts and
rotated the pump shaft clockwise. Now the engine has more grunt than
it did before but is now much noisier. It now sounds more like a cold
transit van diesel to the sewing machine it was! When driving it now
I have to raise my voice slightly to speak to the Mrs!

How do I adjust the timing of the fuel pump correctly / properly as I
suspect it is now slightly too advanced and thus too noisy?

Is it trial and error? I am not trying to adjust any fuel delivery,
just when it delivers!

Thanks
Jon
