More to it than just temperature...There are on line altitude adjustment calculators. They take in effect temperature, barometric pressure, humidity and above sea level height to figure out what your carburator "sees" for air...Just because it's 48* outside doesn't necessarily mean you should change anything with the jets. Willy's told us about a jet size up or down for every 1,500 foot of elevation change.
