Hi Tim,
It sounds like your 56 hasn't run for a day or two. 
Just a thought about the fuel pump and other things
you  need to do.  First take off the fuel pump, take
it apart and clean the rubber parts with WD-40.  This
well clean and soften the diaphragm.  Next blow out
the fuel lines back toward the tank.  Then drain the
tank, drop it and have it hot tanked.  this will save
you a lot of trouble in the long run.  I also ran Sea
Foam through the carburetor.  It cleans out alot of
the sludge from the old gas.  Then run Marvel Mystery
Oil in the gas for a few tanks of gas and all of the
other problems will disappear.  I worked great for the
last two cars I did.  I burned my old gas to get rid
of it.  We can do that here.  Other places this might
not be the case.  I no longer have problems with my
55.  We take it on long trips all of the time.  To
date no problems.  Good luck.
