If vapour locking is truly your problem then loosening the fuel cap should not cure it, a plugged vent in the fuel cap causing a partial vaccum on top of the fuel supply prohibiting the fuel from gravity feeding the carb is different from vapour lock, a vaporizing of fuel in the lines/carb which also prohibits fuel flow. if loosening the cap cures your problem, clean the vent in the cap or replace it. if not find ways to keep the engine heat off the fuel lines, make sure they are not located near the ex system or manifold.good luck, mEl
