I don't want to change my mind?? I understand correctly how internal combustion works. Not my fault you don't understand properly.
Cold air intake is so air into engine is denser. Not to cool engine. Same effect as intercoolers for turbo chargers, and superchargers. You just don't understand.
Humidity in open air is not a combustion chamber. Humidity has little to no effect on combustion in an engine so that example is worthless.
I am sorry you misunderstand the concept, but fuel in a combustion chamber is not a coolant. It is propellant. It ignites with air and either spark or heat and compression. Just because it doesn't burn as hot with a rich condition, doesn't make it a coolant. It is still burning, combusting. I gave you very good links that explain what a coolant is, and also what causes dieseling. I can't help that you don't understand the written word. No where in the link that explains what causes dieseling does it say it is caused by a lean condition, with one exception. That exception is when an engine is running too hot or too lean may produce an environment conducive to allowing unspent fuel to burn. I would love to know how you think left over fuel or oil in a combustion chamber is because of a lean condition. Or that a hot spot in a cylinder is an effect of a lean condition. A hot spot would be like a piece of carbon, FYI, which would be a result of a rich condition.
And again you don't understand the written word. I never said loss of power is greater at higher altitude. For like the 4th time, I said it is more noticeable. A 25% drop in power at sea level is still 25% at say 10,000 ft. However since less dense air at higher altitude equals a loss of power with any fuel, a 25% loss is just that much more noticeable. I don't know how I can make this any simpler for you. Maybe you should read more carefully.
Propane in a barbeque is not an internal combustion engine. Huge difference.
Here is a proper link to internal combustion engines.

I suggest you pay attention and read this for a better understanding. No where will you find it referring to fuel as a coolant, except in a jet or rocket motor, and not during combustion. Fuel only acts as coolant when traveling through parts of the jet or rocket engines in route to combustion.
My last post on this subject. I have posted nothing but the facts and backed them up. If you don't comprehend, that isn't my problem. Dennis
P.S. Good luck finding proof that the fed won't allow high mileage vehicles. You can call it conspiracy theory or whatever, but our government is very controlling, and very often not because they are doing things for our well being. It all comes down to money. You can believe what you want, but I know better.
