Vapor lock: I suspect (but don't know) this car has a return fuel line back to the gas tank, so cool gas is moving all the time by the T to the carb.
WAI: The car will run rich, unless the carb can reduce the F/A ratio enough to compensate. The economy might still be better. Look at the color of your spark plugs to figure out how well it is doing.
