Sent to Car Experts July 25 09:04 PM

1989 lINCOLN Mark VII. The engine stalled on a weekend trip. this is the first time ever. stalled when hot, let the vehicle cool down and it started and ran fine. out side temp was about 116 degrees. Stalled again on the was home. Again let vehicle cool and it was fine. is this a vapor lock problem, or fuel pump problem?

thank you

Vapor locks don't exist on fuel injected cars. It may even be an electronic problem. You need to test for spark, injecter pulse using a noid light and for correct fuel pressure.
