Hi List,
Since start of Mex trip Dec 5th, my Mexicali Rose has been purring along beautifully, as she has done since '99 when we made our first round-trip to mainland Mex from N CA.  And by the way,  Rosie's odometer flipped over to 250,000k original miles just a day over the border!!!  She looks great and runs like new on her second engine.  Well, almost...

Here's the rub:  soon as we reach altitude of 2k feet, she loses power on grades; by 4k feet, she's realling feeling it; and at 9k feet she's crawling on her belly like a reptile at 20 mph!!!  

What's up? I'm hoping all that's required is a turn of a screw somewhere.  I've got the Bentley along, naturally.  Please advise by p-mail ASAP, as we're currently at 5k feet, but have plans to get into some REAl monta�as pronto.  Except at altitude, she runs great...
Thanks, or, as we say in Mexico: �milgracias!
