Think I spoke too soon, now it won't start, cant get a spark, and the plugs are dry so suspect no fuel, sounds like crank sensor to me?

Fuel pump is priming when first turned on, but not after that, indicating the fuel isn't being used up.

 

That was why I thought Crank Sensor

New sensor fitted, started almost as soon as the starter engaged!

 

Interestingly the new sensor looked like a higher quality item, made by Siemens, hopefully won't need to change one again!
