Vapor lock on an 80s Carerra? The whole system is pressurized from the pump up in the front. There isn't any vapor lock issues on these cars.
As far as leaving the key on... What is that supposed to do? It doesn't run the fuel pump. That is controlled by the DME and it only turns on the fuel pump when it sees the engine is spinning. There aren't any fans in the engine compartment that run when in accessory position. The only thing it will really do is allow you to operate the windows and listen to the stereo. And it gives you the opportunity to forget it and run the battery down.
