So the rough running is called by cylinders generating different power
levels? Why can't that occur anywhere in the air/fuel mixture curve?


Andrew, every question you asked is clearly answered, in depth, in John
Deakin's AvWeb series about engine operations, including graphs and charts.
In color!!

Do your homework, lad!

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious, but it cannot
survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable,
for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves
amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through
all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the
traitor
appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and
he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness
that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation,
he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of
the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A
murderer is less to fear. -- Marcus Tullius Cicero
