Vapor Lock

[Sailfish]

I experienced the same sort of situation with my Superformance. I experimented with different "fixes" but the most helpful was installing a wooden spacer under the carb. I tried a phenolic 3/4" spacer and it helped, but at the urging of a friend, I switched to a 3/4" wooden spacer and that all but cured it. I don't have a supplier name, or source, for the wooden spacer-----a friend had it and gave it to me. It appears to be a laminated wood, similar to high-grade marine plywood. It is definitely not a home built product.

This comment is for the regular Club Cobra folks, not the guy with the Poulan lawn tractor. .... This thread was a year and a half dormant when eddyjuan554 in his first, and so far only, post on our forum appeared to ask about vapor lock in his lawn tractor. I immediately concluded his post was either a lost soul who had no idea how to search and use forums, or the latest volley in the spam wars. Seeing the linked tagline to adxfunding.com under his name, I assumed it was spam. ... However, I saw an opportunity to crack a joke about Shelby so I took it and didn't report the lawn tractor spam post to a moderator.

It now appears that some of you are either not reading the posts that revived this thread, or you are such nice guys that you aren't as cynical and skeptical as me. So let me point out this job posting taken from elsewhere on the web:

"Social Media Marketer

So, if anyone wants to keep offering help to a guy who can't tell the difference between a Cobra and a lawn tractor, and who will likely not be back until there is something else he wants to sell, please be my guest.
