Gasoline will eventually boil under extreme vacuum at any temperature but the problem is trying to pull enough vacuum. During a recent experiment it took about 8 hours to pull enough vacuum to boil it to vacuum, the gasoline was at 72 degrees Fahrenheit.

Temperature does play a small role when trying to boil under vacuum, this would be true if just trying to boil under normal atmospheric pressures. We pulled enough vacuum to double what was even in space not an efficient way to vaporize fuel.
