Vapor Lock
Hi, I'm a new Cobra owner with a vapor lock challenge. Here's what I have:
'69 Ford 302 purchased from Engine Factory in NJ
Edelbrock 7121 Manifold
Edelbrock 1806 Carb
Whenever I would travel for an hour or so and shut the car off, it would not start up unless I let it sit for 20 minutes or so. Edelbrock & Engine Factory told me to buy a spacer plate #8711, which I did and it seemed to solve the problem most of the time. Any other ideas that I might employ to solve the problem ALL of the time? BTW, I do have a steel braided fuel line that is elevated away from the engine block.
Much appreciated,
Blake
