You:
"<<<SNIP>>>...our current gas formulation (lower actual "heat content")
ends up in effect resulting in an overly "rich" incomplete burn in the cold
running condition because of this default setting from the past, and that
can lead to plug fouling if the engine is not warmed up each time it is
driven.
Anybody else ever hear of this theory?

Haven't heard the theory from a source other than you, but it makes sense
to me, so it *must* be true.


In an odd parallel, the above sentence is the single-premise argument that
makes Internet and short-wave-radio "Conspiracy Theory" programs & news
groups possible... :)
