Default 98 940 2.3lpt auto stalling, not starting

Right so I’ve been doing a bit of work in the car as might have seen on other threads. Cam belt and aux belts, crank breather system, part change on auto transmission fluid. I filled the car up with half a tank of fuel, and drove it for 20 miles. It stalled at the top of a gentle hill. We rolled to the side, waited an hour then started it up and drove The remaining bit home.

Now today it’s stalled on a hill again. Although this time I’ve started it up and it’s stalled again. Now all it will do is 100m or so before cutting out.

It seems to cut out under acceleration. It’s just completely dies. Electrics and everything. I thought it might be water in the fuel so I added some meths. This seems to have made it worse?

I’m wondering whether there is air getting into the fuel line?

Any help would be appreciated.

Will
