Looking for info on Fuel Pumps

What people are using Electric or Mechanical.

Also if In Tank or In-Line.

With Either of the Electric has it been worth the cost.

Also have vapor lock problems gone away ?



EFI with inline pump pumping 17 psi. Was very pleased about not having vaporlock problems in 45k miles... Until

Monarch Pass, CO.

It was hot but no hotter than we have driven in many times before.
It was high but we cross the Rockies every fall.
It was 85 octane with ethanol, but we use it every fall.

Hoses were all fixed, etc. I will check things again. It must be on the suction side as I doubt the gas was boiling on the 17psi side. When the pressure dropped to 5 psi hard to say what was happening on the pressure side.



'74 Eleganza, SE, Howell + EBL
Best Wishes,
George
