Default Winter gas stall

I replied to someone a while back saying that my neon stalled out ... right on the corner of a freaking four-lane road and I had to roll it backwards into a resteraunt parking lot to get out of the way of like four hundred tractor trailers ... well I had it towed down to the BP like 400 yards down the road and they told me it was stalling because the tank was full of winter blend gas, which burns hotter. It was 75 degrees out, and the gas was getting so hot it was evaporating in the fuel rail! The tank was half full, so I filled the rest of it with regular gas to dilute it and it runs great now. Isn't this weird though ...

Not as weird as you think. Happens all the time in fall and spring when the wether changes from COLD to HOT quickly and they have not changed or already changed to the other blend.
