I realize that ambient temperature will have a larger effect with regards to to fuel temperatures than ohmic heat generated by motors and solenoids in the fuel system. But until someone comes up with a bolt on that can control the weather, I think we're stuck with what we're dealt.

I realize it may seem like a nit picky thing to mention, but when you're dealing with motors already operating at incredible volumetric efficiencies and people are willing to shell out several hundred dollars for a cat back exhaust to pick up 2 hp over 500 RPM of the power band, I say its all about the details, and warrants mention.

As far as me teaching a lesson, I know I prefer to know the reasons behind the answers and I'm sure others do too. I realize yourself and others are also quite knowledgeable, but a lot of other people are still learning. I'm still pretty new to the game myself, as I am a recent convert from the muscle car camp. But when it comes down to it, I'm allowed to post whatever I like so long as I obey the forums guidelines, and there will be times where I might be mistaken as I am not infallable. It is your decision on whether you want to read my posts or not. I know I will most likely read yours.

Oh, and by the way

Atomization is a mechanical process resulting in a change in surface area having nothing to do with heat, Vaporization is a thermodynamic process resulting in a change of state, having everything to do with heat

But I'm sure you knew that already
