29 cars, of which 19 were equipped with air conditioners representing 12 makes, were evaluated for fuel volatility requirements; data obtained showed that volatility limits were reduced on average of 0.6 lb RVP upon installation of unit and lowered another 1.3 lb RVP when operated, thus illustrating overall trend toward increasing vapor lock tendencies; possible improvements.
