Thought I give you an update now it's all working perfectly again.
Fresh fuel didn't help...same problem, as soon as its was eased off choke the engine would die.
Float bowls were pretty clean and jet in the corner of the bowl was clear, float bowl gasket good condition.
Took both carbs off - both idle jets were blocked with shit and o-rings perished...whilst off changed other o-rings, both diaphragms (no splits), needles, needle jets, choke gaskets, and cleaned everything up in general with carb cleaner. All back together and now fine.
Still need to take tank off to check fuel tap filters. I've got a set of in-line filters - are these worth fitting?

I wouldn't lose to much sleep re petrol taps, they are clearly working just fine
