I had a similar problem but in a different situation. I was on a continuous uphill climb, going into Oregon from California, when my battery was down to two...
Nitrogen molecules are bigger than oxygen molecules, so nitrogen seeps out more slowly from tires than air; nitrogen resists heat buildup better than air,...
