Peugeot 504 Cabriolet Fuel Injection problems

I've recently bought a very nice 504 cabriolet with the Kugelfischer
fuel injection. I'm trying to sort out some problems with hot
starting and the engine cutting out and refusing to re-start when it
gets hot. Symptoms are it just drops back to tickover and no power
at all - I can't get the revs up at all and then it won't re-start
for about half hour.
I've changed all the the HT circuit so I'm suspecing fuel. I know my
fuel pump is leaking slightly and maybe I'm losing fuel presure when
it gets hot. Other symptoms are that it won't run above about 3000
rpm when hot when I floor the accelerator - it just misfires and
loses power.
I've got a couple of questions:
1) Is there anyone in the UK who can overhaul my fuel pump (not the
injection pump but the one near the fuel tank.
2) Is there an alternative pump I can use? What about a pump off a
Triumph TR6 or 2.5 saloon that had the Lucas mechanical fuel
injection system fitted?
Any help would be greatly welcomed because when its running nicely
its a fantastic car. The 1971cc engine really is smooth with fuel
injection and much better than the old carb 1971cc motor I had on my
505 Estate
