Had another look at the car today. Still can't figure it out . I read online that someone had the same issues I am having and it ended up being the coolant temperature sensor. I have driven it today with the sensor unplugged and it was even worse than what it is with it plugged in. Loses all power at 2000 rpm. It seems as if that is limp mode with it unplugged. With it plugged back in it's a bit better but still no boost. I have spoken to the previous owner and he has told me that it had trouble starting one day due to water getting inside the big plug that comes of the fuel pump. It starts an runs fine now but I'm wondering if maybe there is a wire within the loom that goes to that plug which controls a diesel governor or something. Im not sure what the black bit on the side of the pump is. Having looked closer It does look as if someone has been into the loom at some point aswell.
