Thank you for the information, I will check each of those right now. I appreciate all the help.

Thanks for the reply. Fuel pump is bolted on, without fuel lines attached you can put fingers over the inlets and feel it suck and pump when cranking the motor. When I hook the fuel lines up to it, no fuel is being pumped in or out. Just to double check it might have a clogged fuel line between the tank and pump, I have attached a rubber gas line with another filter into a 5 gallon can of fresh gas, still no luck. I am at my wits end.

Hello. I am also working on a 54 Packard Deluxe Clipper sedan. I am ready to set it on fire. I bought the car in running order. Drove it home and the fuel pump went out. Bought a new one from Max Merritt, it pumps until I hook up fuel, then nothing . If I pour a little gas in the carb it fires right up. Any suggestions? Yes I have gas and new fuel lines. Can my battery crank too slow for it to start? Since you have the same car, I thought you could help me out. Thanks, Richard
