The question that I am about to ask might to some seem strange or even stupid , but then again I'm not a mechanic.
For instance, if were to cover the exhaust around the engine area, manifold pipe and the box under the wing with exhaust manifold heat fibreglass to contain the heat around these areas, would this then produce better fuel consumption because the engine area had become more cooler or would it reduce the consumption.
I have always been puzzled by people saying cold air and petrol produces a better mix in the carb, also would it in another way reduce the noise level as well inside the car?

PS. Angel I have not been able to measure the trim tabs because of the bad weather, I have not forgotten.
