Ray,

Here's an idea someone = else told me=20 about to cure vapor lock. If you know you'll be starting up again = when the=20 engine's hot, try shutting down by turning the fuel off at the selector=20 valve. That way there's no fuel left in the lines to get = hot. Then=20 when you're ready to start, open the throttle and mixture and run cold = fuel up=20 to the fuel servo with the boost pump.

Don't know if this would = help, but the=20 guy who told me about this technique swears by it.
