Default Fuel Prices For The July Pilgrimage

We left home and flew to Pullman in eastern Washington for the first fillup.
When we were passing 25 mi. north of Helena, MT, the engine quit - vapor
locked. Contributing factors were the high temperature (85 F @ 9500'), the
(I suspect) old mogas I bought in Pullman, and my fuel system design, having
the electric pump forward of the firewall and no forward-facing air scoops
on the tank vents.


What model of the plane is this?
