First, that wasn't a bad price to do the timing, but you have made a better decision to learn to do it yourself. Good man!

Second, timing a cocker is critical to its operation, they are a personal gun that needs good maintenance skills to keed it running good. The timing is space between the gun firing and recocking itself. It doesn't use blow back like a spyder, but uses pneumatics and air pressure to move the bolt and cocking rod.

First, to solve the timing problem you have to know the problem. Does it not recock all the time or doesn't fire sometimes? This is easy to fix. ON the top of the gun there is a hole, this is for a 1/4 inch allen wrench. Take the allen wrench, remove the bolt and stick it down into that hole. Pull the cocking rod back a little while pushing down on the wrench and you will feel the wrench drop in, twist it to line up the wrench and the screw. From here all you will probably need is an 1/8th to a 1/4 of a turn. If it doesn't always recock and slips, then turn it clockwise an 1/8th. If it doesn't always fire, try clockwise. Reinsert the bolt and try firing it. Continue this procedure until you get it to fire correctly.

After a while you may get interested in making it fire differently. This is the best part of owning a cocker, to customize how it fires. You can get even more in depth with it. You start adjusting the threeway also and this can get to be a little time consuming, aggrevating, and tidius. However, once you get it setup for your own personal tastes, the gun will rawk.

Up to you to learn how. Ask again if you want to learn how to get even more specific, but first get your gun running correctly first.

As for the back block, don't worry about it, they always have a little play on a standard cocker.
