A vapor lock is caused by gasoline turning to vapor and thus not pumping properly. What you're describing, prior to the pump, would be better spoken of as a starvation situation. And I'd offer that it'll be necessary to do some hands-on exploration to find out where the problem is!

I know it's a fuel issue since I bought the fuel line pressure gauge tool however I' m not sure if its the fuel pump or some sensor. The only way I can 

Vapor Lock A condition that sometimes occurs during hot-weather months in suction pumping systems, and which interferes with the flow of gasoline through the system. In a suction system , the action of the dispenser pump creates a vacuum that “pulls” gasoline from an underground storage tank and through the piping to the dispenser. As we have explained, the pump plays a very small part in vapor lock situations. Installation, the amount of product in the storage tank and the Vapor Pressure of the product are the main reasons for vapor lock. Example: Have you ever heard of vapor lock in a diesel pump?

Too much variation in gasoline these days. The last 2 trips out Ive had issues with vapor lock, Engine is a Mercuiser fuel injected 502 in a 98 Ultra Stealth, I originally thought it was the fuel, I drained the tanks, changed the fuel filter/seperator, and tried again, then the fuel pump failed, so I thought that was the issue, changed 2020-03-29 · Vapor lock occurs more commonly in carbureted vehicles and in air-cooled engines than in fuel-injection or water-cooled engines. Since the introduction of fuel injectors, most manufacturers have moved the fuel pump from the engine compartment to the fuel tank. 2017-04-18 · Vapor lock doesn't happen between the pump and the carb, it happens between the tank and the pump.

Installation, the amount of product in the storage tank and the Vapor Pressure of the product are the main reasons for vapor lock. Example: Have you ever heard of vapor lock in a diesel pump? No, because the Vapor Pressure of diesel is approximately 8 PSI. The only real cure for vapor lock in hot climates is to keep 2021-02-26 · Vapor lock does not usually happen in fuel-injected engines for several reasons. First of all, most electric fuel pumps are located at or in the fuel tank, which is usually located too far away from the engine to be affected by its heat, so the gasoline is not likely to turn to vapor there.

13 Jan 2010 Tech / General Engine - Vapor lock or bad fuel pump or wiring? - I have a 1991 RS that I converted to multiport with Street and Performance's 

I do not recommend by passing the mechanical fuel pump when an electrical pump is installed. Many operators have problematic pumps that continue to vapor lock. This is a result of too much air entrainment in the process. Unconventional Solution. One particular centrifugal pump moves liquids containing large amounts of air and other gases.

If you're getting air/vapor back to the tank (in the return line), either the fuel is boiling or you're sucking air on the supply side. I won't get into the reasons why carburetor engines experienced vapor lock, but I'm pretty certain that's not your problem. The Cause of Vapor Lock Vapor Lock is a problem that results from ambient temperatures, vapor pressure of the product and the installation. It is not a characteristic of a pump. Atmospheric Pressure of 14.7 PSI (Sea Level) presses on the liquid in the tank.

Vapor lock can affect any kind of engine during normal operation where the outside ambient temperature remains high, or the fuel system becomes overheated because of high engine temperatures or lack of insulation. Fuels that have high volatility can also cause vapor lock. When fuel boils inside a metal line or If your vapor lock is indeed being caused by the pump the you need a regulator with a bottom port to return to the tank. That way all the fuel that passes thru the pump is new, fresh, cool gas. I used my stock sending unit.

vapor lock. vapor lock - disruption of fuel movement to a gasoline engine caused by excessive vaporization of gasoline. Vapor lock occurs when the fuel pump, which is designed to pump liquid, loses suction as it tries to move fuel vapor. The engine will usually stall, but in less severe cases may accelerate sluggishly or knock due to an excessively 2017-08-01 vapor lock.
