Possible Vapor Lock

[ricccola777]

So I am fighting what appears to be vapor lock on my 68 f250 with a 360. I went and got some heat shields for the fuel lines. Should I wrap the steel line going from the fuel pump to the carb or just the rubber fuel lines? Also, I got a heat shield to wrap the fuel pump or the starter...which one should I wrap? Am I wasting my time? Any suggestions on a spacer for my carb? I have a stock 2 barrel carb...do they even make spacers for those? Trying to get things cooled down.

First, tell us what's going on. Why do you feel it's vapor lock? What is the engine temp when symptom occurs?

I have never had a problem with my FE's and both have AC in Florida with nothing on the fuel lines or starter.
