Had a little look at the car again tonight. Checked the distributor cap and contacts where a little green, cleaned them up and checked the plugs. There were pretty suggesting the engine was running rich.
Checked the RPM on the multi meter and it was idling around 430, adjusted that upwards and little and its a little better.
The checked the idle mixture screws and the left was out 1.4 turns and the right about 0.9. I set them both 1 turn out for now but I have no vacuum gauge ti check maniford vacuum.
I noticed vacuum nipple on the carb had a small bit of hose with a bolt in the end. This could be leaking a little no way to tell, I popped the bolt out I swear she seemed to run a little better but that could have been in my head.
