Folks,
I will be heading up to higher altitudes later in September to participate in Driving for Kids, a fund raising event for a free Colorado camp for children with life threatening illnesses, one of several in the U.S. started by Paul Newman.
The elevation where I live is around 900 feet. Our round trip driving route of 2000 miles, will vary from our origination point of 900 feet elevation in Kansas City, Missouri, to around 5700 feet, and at some point, around 10,000 feet to get across the Rocky Mountains.
I can’t remember what adjustments are needed to compensate for the higher altitude.
Is it the fuel/air mixture, or the timing, or both?
What specific changes should I make once I reach, say, Denver at elevation 5280 feet?
Thanks.
Ron
p.s. Feel free to private message me if you are interested in supporting the Camp through this event.
