Morning. Back to the office for me. Gas company NEVER showed (despite opening the ticket early in the morning and then calling them twice through out the day)... They called me this morning to see if I still need assistance. I made sure to point out I waited, at home, ALL DAY for them.... They are going to show up after 6pm today for me.
I know some of my problem was cold temps, but this is not the first time my regulator on the meter needed thawed out and my neighbors were fine.....

Clean the TB, IAC and MAF.

Also pull the vacuum line leading into the FPR and see if it has gas in it, or if it smells like gas. It could have gone bad as well.

Hopefully not too many acronyms you don't know

afternoon everyone, still cold outside and the wind was so strong yesterday it blew my recycle bins down the block. We've lost one permanently as someone obviously picked it up and put it on their front step but they flew right across the ice covered snow that we have, almost makes me want to go down a hill on a taboggan

Fuel Pressure Regulator. I believe both the L67 and the L36 have the FPR on the fuel rail.
