In general, vapor lock is caused by engine heat getting to the carburator, fuel pump, intake manifold, or any other engine part that carries fuel. the evaporation point of gasoline is very low, and it doesn't take much heat to cause it. It has largely been done away with by the introduction of fuel injection. I am not sure what you should do about it, except call the MB dealer and ask them, or find a friendly MB mechanic and ask him/her. All he, she, or they can do is say "NO". You could also call "Click and Clack" on National Public Radio on Saturday AM and ask them. They are very funny and excellent, MIT-trained mechanics. Call your local NPR station and ask them for the 800 phone number. Good luck!!!
