Vapor lock vs heat shield! Who wins?

I installed a heat shield cover over my fuel lines in Hope of curing my vapor locking problem. Find out if my $20 investment works.

Run a fuel return line so the fuel wont sit in the line. Instead the unused fuel will return back to the tank to cool down. Hope this helps.

Gracias por explicar muy claro, lo pondré en práctica

I tried this. Didn't do shit. Put a 1/2" wood spacer under my carb which kind of helped during hot starts, but once the temp started getting to like 100°F here in Arkansas my bronco is barely running, I drove it home the other day and it was running so lean it was missing and bucking just trying to get it on the highway. Couldn't see any liquid fuel in the fuel filter. About to try adding a regulator and return line back to the tank as that's apparently the best solution. I'm also still running a mechanical fuel pump though.

So this was worth it after all? What were your before temps on the fuel hose?

Did you adjust the emissivity of your temperature reader / gun?

If you dont run all the way down, how can you get a proper vs

Just run that 100ft of hose behind the motor on right hand side of it to the carb. . That's way to much hose man.

Fucking bungee strap on the battery. Temp gauge, lol. Fuel lines all aver the engine. Fan not covering entire radiator, etc. Nice piece of shit.
