Re: 48 packard stops running

I had a 47 Custom that had had the gas tank lined. The car would rum well for a short distance and then shut down. After much head scratching, I found that the tank lining had formed around the fuel pick up and the only fuel getting through was what little seeped through the lining. After sitting fuel would again seep through the lining and the car would start and run for a few minutes.
I know this is not a very likely cause in your case. However, if your tank has been relined, especially if done by an amateur, and all else fails, you might check it.
Good luck. Keep us informed.
