If you've had the tank(s) down before, did you replace all the old rubber lines between the tank and the engine with new? They get old and brittle, and pieces can break off inside and jam so as to cork the line internally.

Never work on old stuff without replacing rubber vacuum hoses, fuel lines, coolant hoses, and flexible brake lines.

If you did just re-use the old stuff, you might replace that first, before dropping the tank. That may or may not be the problem, but it should be done anyway, and it's easy and cheap.

Oh, and new clamps too.
