Dawn came with Poofy waiting to sit on my lap. The snow was gorgeous in the early morning light.
My truck was being temperamental with starting. I finally traced the issue to the air flow meter gate being frozen shut. I had to use some heating pockets to warm it up enough to get the gate moving so the truck could start. I had this same problem back in Oregon when it got cold enough but not in Colorado. It’s a very strange problem.
The burn piles did a great job of eliminating the extra woody debris. And wow the cornice on the house is crazy big! It reminds me of a glacier.
There’s the truck! Your valve problem might be due to more moisture in the air
Hey Steve!
The best I can figure out is for whatever reason that the flapper valve in the air flow meter literally freezes shut. When I took it apart, the valve was frozen solid and wouldn’t move until I heated up the metal enough to thaw it out.
I’ve had the same symptoms before up in Oregon but when it wasn’t quite freezing. However I think maybe that was related to the cold start injector not working. Just got that repaired this week after years of hunting down the problem. It turned out the wring harness had a problem so the cold start injector never was firing!
Cheers,
