I spend too much time in car groups.
Stoich is also a general term for stoichiometry, in chemistry. Same idea as with engines, but more general.
stoichiometric
Flashbacks to chemistry class where we calculated this shit, get me out!
I've seen that terminology used for engines, but I had no idea it was pronounced different and had another meaning.
I am running at my optimal stoichiometric ratio. I am above your jest.
stoich
could you use this in a sentence? i'm having a hard time understanding how to use it.
"The ratio of air to fuel inside the cylinder is at 14.7 to 1, exactly at stoich."
