Howdy List,

The old '82 did well coming across the plains to Denver.  Now that I
have gotten into the mountains though I have noticed a significant
drop in power.  I am guessing that it is a combination of altitude and
the 85 octane gas that I filled up with.  Do ya'll know if the 85
octane should affect the power output of my van?  I didn't notice any
pinging.  Also the van has displayed the tendency to flood which I
attribute to the altitude, thank goodness it is easy to disconnect the
fuel pump.  Do you guys know of any adjustments that can be made to
reduce the flooding?  I did a tune up in Denver so the timing etc. is
all set correctly...

Thanks for any insights,
