serge, this thread ( http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?t=423673 ) started (and I believe ended) the topic.

where I typed:
Quote:
In modern cars the "gas pedal" controls (restricts) the amount of air. ...it's an air pedal.

If you have MFI, or carb's, your "gas pedal" controls the gas(oline) and not the air..

So hopefully you can see to ditch the "it's an air pump" model and see that restricting air will restrict the fuel (just like a partial throttle position)
