Trident Fuel problems

I've just started having fuel problems on my 96 Trident 750. It's used daily and just started cutting out, but I can carry on running as long as i don't rev too hard or exceed 60mph.
I took the tank off last night and fuel pissed out when I disconnected the hoses so I knew something was wrong. I took off the vacuum tap and found the valve was in the vacuum position. When I took it apart I found the casting was blocked so it was retaining the vacuum. I cleaned it out finding a small thin piece of rubber was blocking the hole and assumed I'd fixed it.
This morning riding to work the symptoms are exactly the same. I opened the cap when I arrived at work wondering if there was a vacuum in the tank but there didn't appear to be. Any ideas?
