My guess it has to do with the viscosity of the mix. If one mix has a higher viscosity (thicker) than the other mix, the amount of fuel that passes through the tiny openings (jets) will differ somewhat. A thinner viscosity will pass more freely ...so you may need to set the mixture more lean in that case. Does that make sense?
