Yeah I am the OP but this has been great and I have actually learned a lot from Hydra and Sharps...and I applaud them for actually arguing their respective points in a very mature and adult way with respect..unlike some other threads you see on other forums where it turns out to be a bitch-fest between school kids. So, it's all good!

yes hydra, i was trying to simplify a very NOT SIMPLE idea for the people who have no background or interest in understand thermodynamics and the other in depth stuff we were talking about, however i DID make sure to specify that the increase in fuel was in response to an increase in air mass.

and thanks Tshane, we try to keep it civil without removing the ability to defend and discuss different topics, its the best way to learn IMO

We're all friends here......LOL

A difference in opinion is fine because we respect each other, and we both are open to every members ideas. I'm not perfect and neither is anyone else.


IMHO.....I think a discussion of different opinions offer new and improved ideas. Not to mention most of the time threads end up clean, but there is always ones that end up bad......LMFAO! ...... And that is the reason this forum ends up on top.


Then again, it's always good to agree, even though we might not agree, we can disagree agreeably.

Don't forget to check between the radiator and the condensor. Lots of people forget about that and that is where most of the crap is..
