Here you can see the location of my Airflow Performance boost pump and Andair gascolator.
As we all know, everything's a pretty tight fit firewall forward.
Given the low 130 +/- degree boiling point of 100LL, I'm wondering if I should enclosed the boost pump/gascolator in a shroud with cold air directed to it.
I suppose it's possible with low power on a hot day and short final, fuel could start to vaporize in this part of the fuel system resulting in engine stoppage at just the wrong time. Of course the boost pump would be on at this point, but are any of this group aware of an instance of power loss due to vaporization at low power settings?
Any and all feedback much appreciated.
