Having trouble with a 1980 RV with a 454 vapor locking, I've done everything I can think of, and it's still doing this. It ran all day 70-75MPH, pulling a trailer over hills, no trouble, then all the sudden, it decided it was going to vapor lock and sputtered for 45 minutes all the way back home. It only has 62K miles on it, and it was garage kept and well cared for.
Here's what I've tried so far:
New electric fuel pump and fuel filters, moved down and away from the heat source (the exhaust)
Moved the dual exhaust to one side (opposite the fuel lines) and installed two new high air flow mufflers
Added electric fan in front of the radiator
New plugs, wires, rotor, cap, coil, and modular
New Non-Collapsible Rubber fuel lines
Removed the snorkel, and maybe a few other things, but I'm ready to pull my hair out.
Any advice???
