How to lean out carburetor instantly?

Like they do on the small aircraft. Is there an easy modification that can be done to a carburetor to adjust the fuel ratio instantaneously without messing with the choke? Mainly to adjust to altitude.

    Automobiles don't experience drastic changes in altitude like aircraft. Such an adjustment is not needed. But if you think you have to have it, it could be done.

    Unless you're talking about a 1973 or earlier single barrel carburetor, the answer is NO. Otherwise you could adapt a teleflex cable to turn the mixture screw from the driver's seat.
