All other days in between will be spent doing burnouts tearing up the neighbourhood and being a bad ass Cobra enthusiast. I also plan on visiting as many members as I can. Cheers, John |
THANK YOU, JEFF!!! Now, explain THAT to Mikie. I know what I'm drinking but apparently Mikie's mind must be clouded from the rich exhaust fumes he's inhaled while going up to Yarnell Hill!:eek: Read this, Mikie, then tell me again who's playing with his...**) Oxygen tends to settle to low places, due to atomic weight molecular theories and gravity. Oxygen levels found at 5,000 ft. are a full 16% less than levels found at sea-level. At 10,000 ft. this percentage loss of oxygen now approaches 30%. As carburetor jets remain fixed, the diminished oxygen in the thin mountain air will burn poorly with the carb's fixed amounts of fuel. The logical outcome is black smoke from the tailpipe, and poor mileage, and significantly reduced power outputs. Phoenix elevation is 1115 ft. At 1115ft, the standard barometric pressure is 97 kPa (731 mmHg). This means that there is 96% of the oxygen available at sea level. Yarnell elevation is 4777ft. At 4777ft, the standard barometric pressure is 86 kPa (644 mmHg). This means that there is 85% of the oxygen available at sea level. So, there is 11% LESS oxygen at Yarnell than in Phoenix, there IS definitely a difference how your carbureted engine runs!!! Ralphie, who sometimes knows what he's talking about! :p |
Long before the new fangled induction crap came on the scene. We were driving our cars and trucks all over gods creation. Up hills and down hills. It was good enough then and it works well today.
11% difference is nothing. If you can breathe there so can the car. |
Hey Ralph,
When are you coming down from the frozen north? |
Tinner, How much will it cost you to get your car delivered to Phoenix?
