[QUOTE="sar4937, post: 6985, member: 191"] The actual boiling point of fuel is called RVP and is juggled up and down seasonally. It is hard to pinpoint exactly and will as stated vary with altitude. Flashpoint varies with altitude and humidity. Actually the temps of your other fluids are way more important due to say head cracking if the coolant is that hot, or lubricants breaking down. If you are that curious at what temp your fuel will boil at, you might as well determine what temp you will combust at since you are sitting very close to that fuel that is converting to vapor. The boiling fuel is more likely a symptom of the real problem, and if your hydraulics were so hot as to boil the fuel in an adjacent tank I would expect some very expensive repairs down the road.
