[QUOTE="bigjohnsd, post: 1403598, member: 86475"] Density altitude also affects the Stoichiometric Air/Fuel Ratio. As the Air Density increases, a given volume of air weighs more, there is more oxygen in the air thus more fuel is required to maintain the correct Air Fuel Ratio to maintain power. Not as critical in Gasoline powered engines as it is in Ethanol or methanol-fueled engines. When I was racing Sprint Cars we monitored Air density and adjusted jetting in the Fuel Injection before every race to achieve the best power, always staying a little bit rich to preclude a catastrophic and expensive event.
