Re: Read Something Interesting

It ain't the fuel. Guys in the southeast have the same problem (to a lesser degree) and they never see winter blend. even here in central Indiana our winter blend is pretty close to straight No. 2. It gels at 7 below. Ask me how I know that.

Consult you psychrometric charts. Winter air is 10-15% denser than summer air.
