Re: CIS Cheap Power
All this talk is making me dizzy. is this talk of rich mixture and
fooled flow meter truth based on actual measurement and experience or
just conjecture? my take on this is that whether the air is cold, warm,
the air filter is plugged or the air is shoved in the flap will respond
to the mass of air and adjust the mixture accordingly. Show me!
