 It is the partial pressure of Oxygen and the other gasses in the Air that is different at different altitudes and temps.

			Ive always found cars can be like people in the fact they have their good days and their bad days. Sometimes I'm driving and I can just feel the car is running poorer than usual. I might feel like it has a grumpy idle or its making a noise a little louder than usual. Then some days its running like a top and I'm like "damn this car is running great today!"

 For gas engines when the air temperature is lower more can fit into the same bore .... thus more power is available since the ratio of air to fuel is assumed to be the same...you are both able to and do burn more fuel per revolution. On our diesels... unless one has a ' mass sensor' to change the amount of fuel ifuel injected... I do not believe more power is made at lower ambient air temperature... I do think our machines may have a pressure sensor which will do some compensating for altitude... but do not think that is related directly to temperature ( and thus density ) of the air. I am referring to NA engines.... I do not know about the others....
