Hi,

This is uncharacteristic of me to post something like this, I know, but...

My boss's boss has an 8x cabriolet. Whenever it gets hot outside, and he's driving along, the car will start to "drag." He says if he lets it cool a while, its fine.

Everyone's guessing vapor lock. I've never experienced this - what do you do about it? Any cures/preventions or any way to verify the diagnosis?
