58' Packard Fuel Issue

Posted by Rollerball On 2023/8/14 20:15:24

I have been driving my 58' Packard solid for about a week until I've started having issues with the car starting and pulling fuel.

I can only get the car started if I bottle feed the carb and prime the fuel pump will run for about 30 mins then lose fuel . I replaced the fuel pump and check all the hoses still not pulling fuel from tank !

I've yet to drop the tank I'm suspecting in issue with maybe sediments in the tank which could be blocking the pickup tube? Is the a fuel filter by the gas tank? Before I drop the tank should I try anything else?

Thanks
