Am bringing it back but I dont want to be fobbed off with "DIRTY PETROL" excuse. What would cause a problem like this, need to be able to ask them to check for certain things. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Did you have the clutch checked out? It also could be a fuel pressure, ignition timing and throttle control actuator/sensor and manifold absolute pressure sensor.
