For example, an engine running at high altitude and high temperature (low density air) needs different carburation than one operating under cold sea level conditions. Also the temperature of the engine itself affects the optimum fuel/air ratio. FUEL INJECTION Many present day automobiles use fuel injection because it offers superior performance and is becoming less expensive thus making it more attractive to the manufacturer. This process is accelerating now because less expensive sensors and highly reliable micro-processors are becoming increasingly available.
