He limped it home from a trip and I found the filter housing full of black sludge, replaced the filter and problem remained only now the power was sluggish above 2000. Dropped the fuel tank and pulled the fuel sender unit and found the screen was embedded in a layer of black sludge at least 5mm thick in the base. Cleaned this and now the car runs much better. Suggest the previous owner had some bad fuel and over time the algae got jiggy with it causing the slime.
