Haven't heard of vapor lock with electronic fuel injection. That was a problem when vehicles had a carburetor. What seems to be the problem with your vehicle?

Yes a 1998 mercury 200 efi outboard vapor can lock. Most of the time the issue can be traced back to the quality of fuel put into the engine that can cause the vapor to lock.

Vapor lock
Is called vapor lock.
That was called "vapor lock".
Vapor lock occurs when the gasoline vaporizes between the tank and the engine. This occurs when the fuel line is routed around the engine so that the fuel is heated to the point of vaporization. When this occurs the engine will run roughly and will lack power because of the inconsistent amount of liquid fuel reaching the carburetor's, or fuel injectors.
Vapor Lock[ing][ed]
Try insulating the fuel line with a NON-FLAMMABLE material as it passes by the engine up to the fuel pump. Especially protect the fuel line from the heat of the exaust manifold.
Vapor lock is usually caused by overheating the gasoline in the fuel line so that it becomes a vapor. When the vaporized fuel reaches the fuel pump the pump stops working, the carburetor runs out of gas and the engine stalls. Look for a fuel line too close to a heat source, often the exhaust manifold or pipe then move the fuel line away from the heat source.
