OK, maybe i was wrong about the double to floats things, but I don't think I am. Point is, I need a reliable way of converting Quaternions into Euler values. At the moment I am using:

and its sort of jumpy. so can anyone suggest a better conversion?

to which values? all the values are internally generated, and already are long decimals, so I can't see what that would do, and i tried putting it on the integers in those equations and it made no difference

You'll cover some jumpiness risk if you do so. Also make sure that all variables are floats

I've fixed it. Wasn't anything to do with the coding as such, because of a phenomenon called gimbal lock, which occurs with euler rotations.
