Hi all
I recently drove my 74 Porsche 914 2.0 on a hot day and the car would not start after driving. I thought maybe vapor Lock. Drove it yesterday and it was 78degrees and the same thing happened. Normally drives amazing. After driving, stalled at the traffic light. Then would just turn over but no start. Do you think it’s vapor lock? After 15min it started up and I was on my way Thanks for the advice |

If that happens again try flooring it to see if it will catch, same thing happened in my Saab 99 which uses the same system.
Not a fix, but might get you back and running faster. |
