Hi all,
Thanks for the responses thus far.
I am based down on the south coast in Hampshire, answer to the name of Jon but known as JP.
The car is not currently residing with me as I have not had a garage, I have just rectified that issue so it will be joining me shortly. Your answers have given me some clues so I will be looking at fuel flow to the pump and tank condition, although I do suspect fuel lines maybe too near the exhaust.
I will report back back findings, so wish me luck.
All the best
Jon (JP)
