Default Re: How do you stop vapor lock?

When I attended the high country tour in Breckenridge a few years ago, they had a seminar on remedies to prevent vapor lock and other problems experienced driving our Model A's at high altitude. Besides some of suggestions already mentioned, one of the suggestions I have incorporated is to get an oven door gasket, slit it length-wise, slip it over the gas line, and secure it with zip ties. The goal is to try to keep the gas from boiling which I'm sure it can do on those hot Texas days.
