Make a simple header tank from a 2l bottle or similar, fill it with clean diesel and feed directly to the pump. That'll show if it's a fuelling issue which it does sound like. If it was stop solenoid it just wouldn't start. What pump are you running?
Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.

Check the fuel filter housing for leaks, I've had a similar problem before and that's what it was.

Thanks for all your replys guys!! I am no mechanic and the car is sadly enough still at the back of the boys garage 8(.. As the car sits he has bypassed the fuel filter the tank and the pump so hes saying and he saying the problems at the injector end of of the fueling.. he doesnt seem to know whats wrong with it but he says he doesnt think theres anything wrong with the injectors.. the car is starting after like 4,5,6 turns and revs for abit then just cuts out and is seeming to be letting air in still.. running about in an old rusty 1996 a4.. help me i need to look cool again hahahahaha pug power!
