Problems starting the engine after sitting a long time or running low on fuel. Why does fuel line wrap around front/top of engine, lower/higher than tank bottom and carburetor, then go to sediment bulb and carb? Ford mechanic doesn"t understand why they made it that way...thinks fuel would boil from engine heat. Does Ford think fuel would be cooled by rad fan? I"m going to run line straight from tank to carb, mechanic says to add a low pressure pump if needed.
 
It's routed like that because the fuel pump is on the left front of the engine.
it sounds like your fuel pump may need a new diaphragm.
