I would appreciate any recommendations on fuel system modifications to minimize vapor lock in my 235/290 when running on autogas. I am familiar with this problem on Cessnas with autogas STCs, and I am familiar with the practice of using the boost pump to restoring fuel flow. In essence, I would hope we have means of minimizing the need to operate the boost pump to keep the engine running. Regarding modifications, the airplane is not local so I can't tell you at this time the particulars of the fuel system as it is currently. Thanks.
