There should be an in-line filter in the hose between the pump and carburettor , it was a service item back then .. be very careful when tightening the solenoid , not very tight ...
With the ignition on take the wire off the above solenoid and touch it back on and off a few times , there should be a defined click each time it opens and closes .

Thank you, I'll have to look at the manual to see which this is. I think there is only one electrical wire to the carb, and I thought that was an anti run on thing. The main trouble is idling, but the car is a bit hesitant to drive above idle.
Yes, there is an inline filter, I had though of replacing it. Looks clean, but has been there many years. I'll look for one on ebay.
