Nailed it!!! solved.In my earlier posted I mentioned that there was a relay under the dash near the fuse box and it looked like a factory loom. I took a deeper dive under the dash and found that relay had been deliberately added. From my limited knowledge it appears the wire running from the loom under the dash to the ignition coil had been cut and the relay put in between. This is where the wire to the break switch comes in as there was a wire spliced into the 12v switched side of the switch to the relay so when the brake pedal was pressed it supplied 12v to the relay energising it and sending the voltage to the coil. I removed the relay and wire bridged those two terminals and wouldn't you know it starts as any normal car now. i will need to do a permanent fix but I will just wait and see if I have created any other issues that that set up was masking.Thank you all for your support and suggestions as they all really helped.
