The Packard company issued this letter to its dealers in 1931 giving instructions about modifications to avoid vapor lock. It states that the fuel had become more susceptible to vapor lock. The fuel today is far more "susceptible to vapor lock" than it was in 1931. The problem is that it vaporizes or boils at a much lower temperature. It is certainly not a new problem


Wow! Packard actually sent out a tech letter in 1930 telling dealers to remove the fuel filter to help move the gas along? That seems like a fairly drastic measure for that time!
