The fuel pump is fairly new, but I have another one I can try.  It is an
aftermarket electric pump and I can hear it ticking, but maybe it's not
always pumping.

My 62 gave me the same symptoms then the fuel pump "Made in China" finally
quit. I got a "Made in USA" and she fired right up. The interesting thing
was the old pump would appear to be working from time to time but I didn't
know she was not working till she finally stopped altogether.
