The Hanson UAT has a screw on lid, is it tight & sealed properly?
All the fitting into the UAT sealed properly?

Mate, you get the gold star!.
First thing I checked and indeed the F%^%&ing screw top lid was loose bt 1/8th of a turn.
Done a full power simulation with the pump test function. Perfect at all fuel levels. I then unscrewed the lid again a bit, and it occurred again. So I made sure it's nipped up nice and tight.

Cheers
everyone for ya help.
