John, This topic has been discussed on the forum several times so you might try using the search feature in the upper right hand corner. If you don't find what you need I am sure you will get plenty of advice on the topic. I have a pulse type flow through pump installed in the gas line near the gas tank to assist with those starts after the car has sat for several days. Some will argue with some justification that it is better to crank the engine over to obtain some oil pressure before starting the car after a long sit rather than use an auxiliary pump to allow less starter cranking. Here is a link to one thread on the subject on this forum. The Packard Club also has some excellent information on the installation of an electric pump in the "Tech Tips section you may want to peruse.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=4411&forum=4&post_id=47921#forumpost47921http://www.packardclub.org/
