It runs cold (normally?) but gets worse then stalls as it gets hotter?
Unless I have missed it, can you give us a brief run down of how the car behaves from a cold start to it dying?
Cheers,
Steve.

HI Steve....
Yep, it starts and runs normally from cold, idling @ 900rpm (ish). After about 10 mins the engine gets warmer and revs gradually drop to 750rpm (ish).
After about 20 mins the fan cuts in at 90 degrees, it is when the engine reaches temp that things start to happen. Idle is slightly erratic and engine revs drop to 400-500 before bouncing up to 900. If the car is switched off at this temp and left for 5 mins it will struggle to start, sometimes firing up for a second before dying again straight away no matter what you try and do to keep it running.
After a couple of hours of standing and getting cool - starts perfectly first time.
