Take the fuel pump off and remove the bottom cover which is held on by one bolt. Check the valves and screen and bowl for sediment. You can blow this crud out with gentle air pressure - not 100 lbs. Check the hose from the steel line to the pump. If it is an original, it is probably disintegating. Several Packard regions carry this hose for about $20.00.
If the treadle-vac has not been rebuilt, have it done before you drive it again. Ed Strain in Florida does a good reliable job.
