Vapor Lock On A Beautiful NW Summer Day

I had the same exact thing happened to me when we picked up our car last year. Was a 100° day.

I did the fuel line mod and added a carb spacer. I also added a reflective heat wrap on the new rubber line. in the long run I think I'm going to change it to something else because I really dislike the fuel line going over the valve cover.

It was effective in eliminating vapor lock it's just unsightly and a pain in the *** when you want to remove the valve cover.

Almost likely be doing another hard line from the fuel pump along the engine where the spark plugs are around the back of the motor and then to the carb.

If you do add a spacer underneath the carb you'll most likely have to upjet as I did.

My spacer came in a carburetor rebuild kit from Mike's carb parts didn't have to pay extra for it it was already there.
