Is it possible the heat of my engine is vaporizing the fuel before it can get to the injectors? Trevor said it happened to him, and it could be causing my car stalling until it cools down problem (see my post in help) Would tinfoil or that exhaust tape that keeps your exhaust cool help? It only bogs and dies when I am driving it hard on the highway, and I am possible that it has something to do with fuel.... the o2 sensor has just been replaced.

Thanks for the info.

It's possible, but shouldn't happen on a newer style intake. The logs would do that if the heatshield wasn't in place.

I'd look into the fuel pump. Stick a fuel pressure gauge on it and go driving 'til you get your symptoms again.

Sounds like the fuel pump to me, too.

well, i think i found my problem.... i was going through all of the fuel delivery lines.... and I found one that was super melted, leaking gas all over everything!

SO i replaced the line, threw some "cool tube" over top which is supposed to keep it 43% cooler, and took er for a drive. so far so good, we'll see after another trip on the highway

thanks for everyones help!
