I am new to this list and apologize if this subject has already been
addressed (perhaps numerous times).  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.
