Hi Whitworth Heads,
For my stock XPAG engine, what needles should I install for operation at two
to three thousand meters altitude? Any idea who carries them?
No, not attaching wings, going to GoF West, in Colorado that is
Cheers, Peter

Peter:
If you just leave the stock ES needles in for the trip, you will have no
trouble. You will just have to lean the jets a bit when you get up to about
5000 ft. (What are meters)'!!!!!!!???
Cheers:
Skip.........Trust me ! I have been there and done that.

If I can get to Durango (75 miles but 2-1/2 hours) I'll be [i]dropping[/i] from 7200 ft. I've never changed the needles (I keep dreaming about living in Florida), so not to worry, Peter. Austin

Murray;
You have been had!!
That was just a little bit of levity. As you know, we here in the Colonies dont use metric for the most part. In my case , after using and being taught feet,inches, lbs. etc. It is very hard to re-learn after almost 70 years.
Any way, I am glad that I did catch somebody.

We know what meters are here in the USA. We have had Speedo meters and Tacho meters on our cars for many years. Ed Curtis

You've got your meters and you've got your vegetarians.
Me? I'm a meter.

G'day Skip
Far as I can tell M-E-T-E-R-S are things used to measure household gas
consumption.
Perhaps you're confusing things with METRES... which are continental bizzos
just a bit longer than a yard.

I think it is all a plot to confuse us!
And some of us confuse easily.
