One thing I forgot to mention - an electric pump will almost always cure vapor lock, but will have no effect on spewing. Spewing can only be cured by lowering the carb temp (block off the heat riser passage) or by using a lower vapor pressure fuel.

Eugene,
Electric fuel pump is not the solution. I had both manual and electric and still had vapor lock. Lock on manual and electric would only sometimes take care of the problem. I removed manual pump and went strictly with electric. Still have problem. Electric pump is just forward of the tank selector valve about
three inches. What do we do now? I am ready to try almost any thing and I don't have mountains.
