fuel gets so hot it evaporates in the fuel lines. the fuel system is calibrated for the density of liquid fuel so the engine doesn't run. less of an issue with FI and return type pressure regulators (unused hot fuel dumps back into the tank to mix with cold fuel and dissipate heat through the tank) was more of an issue with carbs because of low pressures and lines ran next to the engine longer (mech. pump to carb) and a carb sitting on a warm part of the engine
