Does anyone know if the Microtech LT-8 has any sort of altitude compensation setting?
I was down at Wakefield on Friday, and heading down Thursday night, I noticed a massive loss of power about 3/4 of the way there, and it stayed like that all Friday, we put on the wideband 02 sensor on the way home today and the engine was running ridiculously lean (16:1 - 18:1) under heavy acceleration.
Thinking it was just a blockage or busted fuel pump or injector(s) I just drove home avoiding heavy acceleration, keeping my eye on the mixtures the whole time.
Then on the way home in roughly the same spot the car lost all its power I put my foot down and it accelerated normally and the mixtures were normal!
I have tried searching the net to find out the altitude differences between Castle Hill and Golbourn, and also if the LT8 has any altitude compensation, but I can't find anything!
Thanks for any info!
Cheers.
