Default Re: 55 T-Bird stalls

On my 55 sedan, there was a sock in the fuel tank with a leaf on it. The leaf was removed. Also, the tank had a bulkhead soldered in at the factory, where the fuel line screwed in. The fuel line is a 5/16 line. The inside of the bulkhead would not pass a 3/16 drill bit. I made that as big as possible. I also installed an electric fuel pump near the tank, with a switch and a relay. When the car has not been used in a week or more, I use the electric pump to prime the carb. The stock fuel pump pulls through the electric just fine after the prime is complete.
