Re: Car quits after it gets hot - No fuel

not a word about vapor lock--i was having a situation very much the same, i found the fuel line was too close to the exhaust pipe, it don't take much with today's warmer temp's and gas that burns hotter to cause this problem, solution --separate the fuel line as far as you can from the exhaust.
