Sorry about the dumb question- vapor lock was mentioned
in a post.

What exactly is vapor lock? My sisters wankle Mazda gets
it and I fear I might someday experience it and not realize it.

What's the cause?~
What's the cure?~

Thanks

Rick,

Does having the proper gas cap have any bearing on vapor lock?

Rick,
Any suggestions on how to make a aux fuel pump safe?
