Air temperature can have an affect how an engine runs. Air density increases as air gets colder. This means that there are more oxygen molecules in the same space when the air is cold. When the temperature drops, the engine will run leaner and more fuel is needed to compensate. When the air temperature gets warmer, the engine will run a little richer.
