Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

I have experienced this every time we go skiing in Mammoth or Tahoe, and I
have wondered about an adjustment that could be made to compensate for
higher altitude.  Is there such an adjustment for the FI system that the
Vanagon uses?

I wonder if the Aussie chip will have any impact on this.  (Anyone in the
mountains using a chip?)  I know that Mick Kalber has the chip and rockers
and also makes trips up to his local mountains - Mick - anything to add?
