1941 Packard 110 - Electric Fuel Pump Advice

Posted by Ragtime Kid On 2015/4/23 0:59:08

My car requires endless cranking when it hasn't been started for a day or two. It can take up to 5 minutes to start it, during which I often end up flooding it from pumping the pedal too much. Initially, it just cranks and cranks with no indication that it's going to fire off. If it has been running and the engine is warm, it fires right up.

I am told an electric fuel pump will help out as I can give it a good priming shot when she has been sitting.

Anybody have experience installing one?

What is the best model to get for the 6V positive ground system this car has?

Where exactly does it get plumbed in and how do you wire it up?
