Thought about the vapor lock bit but the fuel line that runs from the mechanical pump to the carb is original steel line and sits about an 1" to 1 1/2" away from the block. I can wrap it in some sort of covering but the temps are only in the mid to high 80's. Would not think that would be hot enough to give a problem?
