    What Causes the Rich Air-Fuel Ratio in Cold Spark Ignition Engines?

    I'm an auto enthusiast/gear head and those were rough figures that were pulled from the anal (I apologize I should have looked the figures up) area to give the OP an idea of what is required to run an engine under various conditions. You have to remember that at lower temps volatility of the...
