Background

Due to the nature of the internal combustion engine, it produces maximum power on a slightly richer mixture than 14.7:1 (air to fuel ratio) - Around 13 parts of air to one part of fuel will satisfy most engines. Maximum economy occurs on a mixture that is slightly leaner than the chemically correct proportion - around 16:1. Under normal operating conditions, the fuel system has to regulate the mixture around these two points, depending on whether we demand power from the engine, or are just cruising at a steady speed on the highway.

How Does it Work?

From the graph it is clear that mixtures richer than about 13:1 will only succeed in wasting fuel: one part of fuel will burn up 14.7 parts of air. If we add two parts of fuel to 14.7 parts of air, only one part of fuel will burn up and do work, because there is not enough air for the second part of fuel to burn. A very important point to note, is that the second part of fuel, which is not going to do any work, takes up space in the combustion chamber – valuable space which could have been filled by a combustible mixture. So, where we could have had a combustion chamber that was filled 100% with a combustible mixture, we now only have about 80% of that space available. The other 20% is taken up by excess fuel, which is not going to burn. That leaves us with an engine that will only deliver 80% of the power it is capable of, while using twice the amount of fuel it should. This explanation finally dispels the "more fuel, more power" - myth. If we want more power, we need to fill the combustion chamber with more "mixture".

This chip allows you to adjust the timing with a single turn so that you can achieve desired results.
