Nope but welcome 
If you sort of give a bit more information then it may be possible to diagnose easier, ie any mods on the car, where in the rev range is it hesitating, was it just after filling up with fuel (and what fuel) etc.

hi thanks guys
right i have just got my new scooby and under the bonnet is a mess. basically the best words for it !!!.
1. it has a dump valve fitted but doesn't look the best
2. i also has a manual boost gauge (thingy) fitted to the drivers side of the engine bay. but just below this , it looks like a solenoid for the air vacuum system, i think there is a 4mm vacuum hose goes on the bottom and the same directly on the bottom of the solenoid which are both missing.

it could be worth removing the manual boost, or winding it back in so its not working.
Also if you can, get the standard valve & remove the dump valve. They can cause more hassle than they are worth & the standard valve on the older classics works/performs better as well.
