Hey I've been running my XB for some time now and I'm starting to notice that it's vapor locking quite often now and is getting harder to start at times should I upgrade the carb and or anything else I already have HPI filter kit I haven't changed the spark plug yet I think that's next but still that shouldnt be the problem it just seem after its run for a while it likes to act up anybody with some good info would be a big help thanks
 
I haven't does that make that much of a diff the thing just seems to start and run great for awhile and then I'll fill up and on the second tank it just seems to go down hill from there and then it won't want to start again so I'll let it set overnight and go through the same the next day I'm just tryin to get the thing to run consistent

I had the same problems with my xt so I modified the gas cap and problem solved
I think it's time I do this mod. Thanks guys.


SO just drill a hole, run a hose and seal it with 5min epoxy?
 
Drill a hole and thread a fuel inlet fitting into the cap and hook up some spare fuel line to it. Some people put a check valve on the end of the line to prevent leaking in the event of a roll over. Of course, this is only one way to do it, I'm sure others have explored different options.
