Fairmont shuts down on hot days

Answered by Graham Smith · 06 Nov 2015

It sounds to me like the fuel is vaporising for some reason. Have you had any sign of the engine overheating? Check the cooling system to make sure all is well there and the engine is not getting too hot. Also check the fuel delivery system, the fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel lines and fuel return system. Consider putting some fuel system cleaner in the next time you fill up with fuel.
