Jim,
Living in Lakeway I just have to drive right over to the airpark 1 mile away and put some in. I'm thinking a 25% mixture.

That said, I don't want to have to do that all the time. Am trying a few things to better isolate my fuel lines and fuel pump from the heat. I even found a phenolic spacer for the mechanical fuel pump. $8. I had never seen one of those before. Worth a shot.

Have also fabbed up an aluminum heat shield for the pump as the problem really seems to ramp up when the fan comes on and blows hot air right on the pump.

Thanks for your help this weekend by the way.
