Default RE: Evolution 26GT - Difficuty Priming

I am also new to gas and have the EVO26 engine. My problem is the fuel line routing. I have a bison pitts style muffler and the fuel line is very confined between the muffler and engine. After a few runs which total ~ 30 minutes the fuel line has a burnt area where it was touching the engine. I was using Aerotrend gas and diesel fuel tubing 1/8" od. I have tried the 3/16" tubing, but it is very difficult to install. I was told to use neopreme tubing. Will there be problems with vapor lock because of the heat?

I also had problems starting this engine and needed to prime it.

I will be putting this engine in a Pacific Laser 200.
