Chris,
     I'm not sure this will help with your problem, but there is a fairly
effective method of making progressive deletions in DNA (Henikoff. 1984. Gene
28:351).  Modified T7 DNA polymerase (Tabor and Richardson. 1987. PNAS
84:4767) seems to solve a number of problems in sequencing.  It is available
as Sequenase from U.S. Biochemical Corp. in Cleveland.  They mail out a flyer
with several short technical reports on the use of this enzyme for
sequencing.  I am in no way affiliated with U.S. Biochemicals.  I hope this
is helpful.
                                                       Bob
