It's easy, but why do you think it's necessary ?
Do you have symptoms equating to poor running ?

Lee Henty took about 10 mins to balance them at a fettle day.
Walkthrough offered up on the most excellent JBX site.

Cylinder 1 spigot it usually blanked off unless you have a snot oiler fitted. Cylinder 2 spigot feeds airbox flap vacuum so it's a pull off hose. Set cylinder one screw in it just open 1/8 turn, then sync cylinder 2 to that. You will need capillary restrictors in the vacuum lines to meters.
Carbtune is a good unit for this job

Fair enuff
If you're near Edinburgh and need any help, I'm 15 miles away, and there's a few other group members up this way too.
You planning a trip into the Trossachs hopefully, even just a day trip ? You can't come all this way and stop 40 miles short of something really special !

It tends to be the case, like everywhere else I suppose, that the smaller the road the greater the fun, and there's a lot of good roads coming up through the border region even if you don't get further north than Edinburgh
