Default Jetting for altitude changes...?

When i change my jetting to compensate for changes in altitude do i go richer or leaner when i go higher?

Example From 360 ft to 1000 ft

When you go higher there is less O2, so you go leaner.
If you are talking about that little altitude change don't worry about it, it's not enough to matter.

I agree, thats not enough of a change to worry about.
When you higher, the mixture gets too rich, because of the less dense air. You can either go leaner on the main jet, or open up the air box lid and let in more air.
