My experience has shown that the power comes back up. I was having trouble running the microwave in the fifth wheel at 7500 feet. I swithed out the jet, and...
Leaning out the mixture by changing the jets will not restore full power, it will make the EU2000 run smoother at higher altitudes, and restore some of the...
