Is the ignition system altitude sensitive?

I get to 13,000' and it starts running like crap.

No, but the carburetor is.  Section 73.10.03 of the M14P maintenance manual 
covers the carburetor.  Task Card 206 of this section guides you through the 
adjustment procedure for the altitude control.

Dennis,

I have the AFP throttle Body not the pressure carb.

Adjusting the mixture has no effect on the engine just rapidly losing power and
running rough at around 13,000'.

Any thoughts?

Milt,
Have you talked to AFP about the problem?  Sounds like a fuel/air problem. 
Have you checked all the intake tube gland nuts and the intake tube collars 
for tightness?  What about fuel pressure?

On a lighter note - New specs for the Rocket.  Service Ceiling - 12,900'. 
:-)
