So I thought it was all sorted, However when I tried to start it again it just would not start.

I took the carb off and took it apart .. it was full of fuel. put it back on and it started and ran great turned off tried to start... nothing. Fudge it I thought and ordered a replacement off ebay from china,18.50 sterling or there abouts. came with carb oil and fuel pipes and filters air filter and thing that the spark plug wire is attached to (magnetic)

Swapped them over when it arrived yesterday and now it starts, runs stops starts runs stops starts etc.

Fudge my old boots! how annoying was that!

Just ordered some av mounts as one has disintegrated cost of 2.28 for x3.
