I agree, very common problems. I have by-passed the manual fuel pump and use a 6 volt electric pump. Prior to installation I cleaned the tank and lines. I have a 1951 with the same engine and have used the same electric fuel pump set-up without issues for two years. My '53 clipper with the 357 has also been using the electric pump. Very insightful suggestions and I appreciate them. If you know of any problems related to electric fuel pumps in Packards please enlighten me, I may hook the lines back up to the manual pump and use the electric for starting/priming or a backup.
