- Unburned hydrocarbons can absorb, and thus remove more heat from the combustion chamber than unused oxygen. John Kahoon 71 midget -- þ SLMR 2.1a þ john.kahoon@pcohio.com _ _

- Bill, Just going to throw my W.A.G in here, but could it be that extra air in the mixture leads to more complete combustion, thus drawing more heat energy from the fuel? This might also explain why

- Here is an easy way to think about it. Turn on an acetelyne tank and light the torch. Lazy yellow-orange flame and not much heat. Turn on the oxygen tank and what happens? Same thing happens in an en

- Hi MGers, The bottom line on mixtures causing cool or hot engine conditions is that the fuel acts to cool the engine to some degree as it enters the cylinder. The richer mixtures naturally carries mo

- Yup, he's right!! All you old farts; think back, wayyyy back, to your high school physics and the LATENT HEAT of EVAPOURIZATION. The only other way to do it is either improve the metalurgy, or go to
