The grass was white, not sure about the windows as by the time i went out the sun was up enough to melt it if there was any. I do work tonight, saturday sunday monday wednesday. Saturday-monday are all frozen Bought a good pair of gloves to try so hopefully they're better than the store supplies. Snow, uhhh probably not til later november or beyond, but then again last year at halloween we had quite the snow fall so who knows

I finally got around to driving my horizon again, been so busy i dont have the time. But its giving me problems with the cool weather on start ups. Wont idle well, sputters mis fires and stalls. Feels like it might be a choke issue, but once i get it running it works fine

Hi EveryOne, I'm back I had to run to the port to
pick up a part & got to see my BeachBum Friends , plus it was great to see the Ocean again 4-Sure...We are blessed
with a beautiful Chamber of Commerce type of day
I really miss living on the beach & being by the ocean..

I hope everyone is having a good start to their day & enjoying.
=======================================
Thanks `Keane for your reply & I hope that you get the frozen dept. full time ..If your Horizon has a carb, I'd get some carb cleaner & spray it out & get the gum outa it...& then take it for a ride & blow out the carbon That should be `fun.
Wish you a super weekend.
==================
Hi `Joe, it's great to look at the positive signs of winter & the cold...It does get in the freez'in Zone several times a year here in Florida, but nothing like you guys get `up north...I freeze when it gets in the 60's (LOL) 4-Real I think I need anti-freeze for my `bod (LOL).

Wish you & member's a SuperSuper WeekEnd ~> EnJoy

Yes, I think it's you reading this We shall wait & see

Where's Mike (JG), what's he doing 2day ? (I wonder what ?)

If it was carbed it what im getting would be pretty normal i'd think, bu its fuel injected. Worked on my calculator some more and discovered another bug, shhh..... Did some extra work the professor talked about and tried to do some more but couldn't figure it all out. Whatever, im done for today, screw the unfinished work

I think you're on the right track thinking it's a choke problem.

Chevron Techron Plus is an excellent fuel conditioner. It not only has detergents to keep the system clean but also contains a lubricant for the fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator. It is sold at GM dealers as a rebranded GM/AC Delco product. Running a bottle of it through the fuel system once every three months is good preventative maintenance.

Thank you Amy! Your kind gesture will create smiles and glistening eyes, and that gift is priceless.
