After the run I mentioned in a previous thread. I left ferret for a few hours & then tried to start her to get home. No chance the motor would fire occasionally & pop & bang but would not run. I tried several times until I have up & called the better half to come down & tow us home. After setting everything up I thought I'd give it one more try & hey presto the bugger fired up straight away. As I've said it was a hot day & we had previously been motoring along. That said the engine idled quite happily until I switched it off.

I suspect vapour lock in the fuel system, although any other ideas would be welcome. If its vapour lock how can I overcome this in future. Someone has suggested fitting an electrical fuel pump. Is this possible & if do has it been done before & where could I situate the pump?
