i called stealth. the chap said they are trying to stay aaway from mk1s as they are too much hassle.?
Oh that sucks! TBH though there's a lot of car specialists who move away from older cars and sticker to more recent models, I guess they're more 'plug and play?'
Have you searched Bosch's web site for a local specialist, you never know you may find someone who can help

I have come up with a theory. Before changing the accumulator it ran if a little rough. I wonder if the diaphragm and spring are stronger and it's restricting to pressure of fuel to the meter head.
therefore there's not enough pressure to get through the metering head. My understanding is that the return line valve should lift with pump continuously running the the meter head flap at rest.
i don't get anything on the return line.
Im going to test the voltage to the pump and check for restrictions. I know the prevoius owner replaced the pump and lines but I need to go back to basics I guess.
does that sound feasible?

Sound like pump is the area to be checking though
