Re: PLEASE HELP



AFAIK vapor lock will almost never happen in our CIS injection. Because the
system is under _constant_ pressure 45-55 psi the boiling point is
increased dramatically, so it's unlikely the fuel will evaporate in the
line and cause vapor lock. 
it's the ideal gas law if i'm not mistaken.

vapor lock would be the last thing on my mind in an injected VW
