It's a little hard to diagnose from just that description. Misfire under load could be a weak spark or poor mixture. That might be down to the coil, the points, the condenser, the fuel pump, the mixture settings, lack of dashpot oil, clogged pipes, rubber slivers, pinholes or several other things.

The fuel feed from the tank is the hose from the top of the reserve lever.

Thanks rob 

for your input I found it to have a dodgy fuel line plus I’ve bought a carb rebuilt kit 

many thanks
