I might be...but that's what Fuel Injection and Computers are for...to
compensate for just that.

         Could it be the altitude?? Remember you LOSE 3% of your horspower
for every 1000 feet in altitude. At 12000 feet, thats 36%!!! Starting with
120hp (I think) you end up with 76.8 horsepower, big difference!!
