      firstly i would look in the tank if it is realy empy... becouse it can be a common problem with the fuel gauge..
      next look in the pipes..

            Should i try to remove ove of the breathing lines to the evap canister ?

            By the way, when i gently fuel the car with 5 liters, it starts dripping fuel from the back of the fuel lines behind the filler cap / top of tank.

            If one pipe is cracked making it drip fuel, does that have anything to do with my vacuum problems??

                Im just thinking, the car had been standing still for 4-5 years, so there can be some rubber pipes that has cracked

                  have you checked the fuel tank ??? i mean isnt it overfilled?
                  is your gauge working fine?

                    Good question.
                    The reason i am filling it up is, that the gauge keeps on showing no fuel, eventhough i have put on at least 20 liters. I actually had the same thought, that the could be full allready.
                    How do i check the gauge ?
                    How do i check if there really is a full tank on the car?
                    By shaking the car i can hear that there is fuel on the car, but again the gauge reads low fuel....

                    HELP

                      You dip the tank with a bit of wire fairly easily on these

                            i think you flodded your tank to the top.. that is why its overruning...
                            get a canister and some fuel... drive for 400-500 km and if dont run out of fuel ir the gauge that is dead...

                              Found the "problem"

                              My gauge is not getting a signal so it is reading empty tank, i guess it is my floater in the tank giving wrong or no signal.

                              Therefore i have overfilled the tank, hence the fuel pistol cutting off all the time

                              The tank was so full, it pressured the fuel out of some small cracks around the banjo for fuel line, therefore i am changing the top of the pump/ catch as it is still available from Audi. This is my leak..

                              Thank you everyone for all your replies, it is much appriciated

                                its not the floater that is not giving the signal... its the tacho that is damaged...
                                dont you have problems with the water temperature?
