Petrol smell is normal when foot to the floor mate  ;)

As well as the other bits im sure the vac pipes could all do with de-gunking , taking off and blowing out just to make sure of no blockages  :)
+1  :y

fair enough  :y

just cant see the correlation between starting problems when warm and vac pipes. who knows  ::) :D :y

should it smell of fuel when foot to floor? being a pressurised system i'd have thought volume going through would have no bearing on that?

but then i am still learning  ::) ;D

Not 100% sure but thought if your foot is on gas and no start but pumping that the system floods  :-\ Could be anything causing it , bloody cars  ::) ::) ;D :D

Will check that  ;) Think its best to just pull everything off it breather wise and rebuild it after a good cleaning , nothing ever simple eh especially when previous owner has just chucked petrol in it and done no servicing  :(

Wonder if its this Temp Sender  ::)

Searching it seems if its knackered it will trick the ECU into thinking its 250 deg and wont start  ::) :-\
Looks like ill be asking swmbo for more pocket money  ::) :(

Guess i could pull the wires off it when it refuses to start and see if it solves the problem ...  ;)
