Cold weather engine tune - 01-25-2008, 12:15 PM

How does a colder air temperature affect an engine's tune?

It's all about the fuel/air ratio so when colder/denser air enters the carb, I think more fuel is needed to maintain that ratio. So the main(high end)needle would need to be adjusted fatter not leaner to compensate.

Is that reasoning correct or am i backwards?
