ok lift pump swapped over, all fuel lines checked and re-tightened, filter checked and system bled. Checked air intake pipework and tidied it up, removed one bit that was collapsing under pressure. This has resulted in a fair bit of improvement. The problem has now changed however :rolleyes...

Cheers lynall, ill give all that a check and swop the lift pump jic!
