  Sounds a lot like when my Rabbit jumped a tooth on the pump.  If he has 
a 10mm, 15mm, maybe a 19mm and a belt tensioning tool or a 3rd hand 
and a couple nails and a screwdriver, he can easily reset the timing in 
about 15 minutes or so.  All he has to do is put it back on the correct 
tooth and set the tension and it'll be within a couple mm of the original 
setting.  IF it's off that is.
  Easy enough to take a peek behind the pump and see where the timing 
advance lever is but I seriously doubt it has anything to do with it.  The 
other options would be a blown head gasket or a sticking injector.
