Howdy Again,
I guess I should fill you folks in on a few facts I guess I left out. My
FC lives at about 6,000 feet in Colorado. Every thing boils at a lower
temperature here. Water boils at about 200F. I think. Vapor lock occurs
in the fuel pump when the pump pulls fuel in. When the temperature is
high enough and the vapor point is low enough a vapor bubble forms {
pump will not pump} and holds both the inlet and outlet valve closed
until things cool off.
