Gene,
I run the lean needles in my car because of the elevation here in
Colorado. I would expect a bit better mileage at any elevation due to the
ratio of gas/atmosphere. At your location, you could experience a small
change in the mileage to the better.
I vaguely remember something about the quality of gasoline now is much
better than that in the late 40's and early 50's. This also has something to
do with the carb adjustments in that we can adjust for greater accuracy and
better mileage.
I imagine Joe Curto, the list's expert on carbs would be able to expand
on all of this.
My best, Ben Cordsen, TC 4260
