just wondering how darn hot does it get up in there????
could the fuel be heated up enough to cause vapor lock more readily?? (this I doubt, but had to ask (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) |

Never had a problem with vapor lock but did learn how important it was to seal all openings into cabin. This was evident only after installing a/c. At that point I could easily locate all leak points into cabin and what a difference it made by sealing them off.
It was only at this point that I realized I was running in a "heater on" mode during the summer weather prior to installing a/c. On the other hand, I was always comfortable in the winter months without a real heater. A good seal between hood and bulkhead gasket was a key contributor to supplying hot air to fuel tank cavity in my case. John |
