Vapor Lock?

quickittyMember

I am having a bit of a problem when letting my engine idle. Sometimes when I start it up and let it sit and idle for a few minutes, it runs out of fuel. It has a electric fuel pump, plenty of fuel in the tank but from time to time fails to deliver the fuel to the carb. I can hear the pump working but no pressure at the pressure gauge. The pump is mounted on the frame rail just below and forward of the stock pump on the motor.
This does not happen when driving, only at idle.
When I take the cap off the fuel tank, I do not notice any pressure differance.
Any thoughts?
