Modern cooling systems are designed to cool the engine in even the warmest climates and conditions. This means that if your engine is vapor locking with any consistency, something is wrong, and should be repaired immediately. A hot engine will fail very quickly, even if it seems to otherwise be running normally

Recommendation:

When vapor lock strikes, the only thing you can do is wait for the engine to cool down. The real question is why the engine is getting so hot to begin with? Have a mechanic check your cooling system
