Fossil fuels are natural energy sources formed from the decomposed remains of ancient plants and animals, buried and subjected to heat and pressure over millions of years. The main types of fossil fuels include coal, oil, and natural gas. They are primarily used for energy production and transportation but contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change when burned. As a result, there is a growing shift towards renewable energy alternatives to mitigate environmental impacts.

Which term is used to describe when fuel vaporizes in the fuel pump and the flow of fuel to the engine is blocked?

The term used to describe when fuel vaporizes in the fuel pump, blocking the flow of fuel to the engine, is "vapor lock." This phenomenon typically occurs when the fuel temperature rises, causing it to vaporize and create gas bubbles in the fuel lines, which disrupts the normal flow of liquid fuel. Vapor lock can lead to engine stalling or difficulty starting, especially in hot weather or under high-performance conditions.
