Subject:      Mileage at altitude - responses/experiences requested
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Hi Volks:

I have noticed annecdotal evidence through various postings that many people get better gas mileage at high altitude.

I have noticed many posts where people have said things like: "I normally get 19-21 mpg - except when I was in Colorado, when I got 24 mpg."

I am interested in two types of postings/responses about mileage:

1. I did not get better mileage at higher altitude 2. I got better mileage at higher altitude, (and location) mine was x mpg.

This information will help me with my fuel injection improvement research.

Thanks in Advance;
