Thank you so much for the advice all. I'm going to take it on board & try tonight. Hopefully this helps others with similar issues

Haha, Well this is well and truly frustrating - I think I'm at a bad phase angle, but regardless I Definately have enough Delta V if i use the correct technique for getting there, Please understand friends, that i am familiar with the Hohman transfer already... Duna, and the outer planets - No problem. I'm just finding Moho is an absolute pain in the backside to get to without using an extraordinary amount of delta v, So I'd just like some tips on the most efficient way to get there... Generally I try to aim for 2-3 burns to get there, which is easy with Duna for example, not sure if it's feasible with the inner most planet. Of course i could just run a similar orbit for years until I got a close encounter, but this isn't very realistic. *Should I leave Kerbins influence/orbit before burning doing my first pereapsis? *Should I aim for my first burn to put my pereapsis exactly on mohos orbit line? Or slightly further out to allow that catch up time? *When do you initiate the vertical burn to get into the elipse with Moho? At the ascending node? * In General, do you find it takes many orbits (so hundreds of days) to get a reasonable encounter with Moho? Any tips - greatly appreciated. How did you get there, & How much Delta V? Cheers!
