Did you start a new thread on electric fuel pump or vapor lock? It's been major hot in west TN the past few weeks. Yesterday a few of our club members were taking a cruise up to KY, about 65 miles one way. My '49' 3100 made it about 30 miles and started to jerk. It only got worse the next 2 miles. It was about 95 degrees. I stopped and let the truck cool down for about an hr. Still jerked a bit on the way back home. The info I've found say's install an electric fuel pump and wrap the original steel fuel lines with a thermal tape or replace it with a rubber hose with nylon. This thread says a pump with 2-3 psi. Add push button to the pump to get the fuel to the carb. Do I bypass the mechanical fuel pump? Any thing I'm missing.
Thanks, Cyril
