We don't get a spring here. We go straight from winter into Summer.

Seriously, I hope it doesn't freeze. I know it is going to get close. I just hate to see all the tree leaves and grass die and have to start all over greening back up. Maybe we will luck out and hover right above the freeze mark. Supposed to be warm again Tuesday, I believe. http://www.srh.noaa.gov/forecast/Map...te=TX&site=FWD

Yall can keep that snowy crap. It looks like we are about to get hit by some sort of winter storm looking thing going through waco right now. I hate the cold!!!! Guess that's why I'm still in my boxers watching TV.

That's a good one Mike!! And, True!!!

I'll keep my whining to a minimum this year though since I don't expect to have anymore $900 electric bills, since we know why that was now.

And, if we can just get a couple more good rains to finish filling up Lavon so i can actually wash my own truck in my own driveway without the McKinney water dept police giving me the eye! Nevermind that i can go around the corner if I want and pump in quarters all day long at one of the ghetto car washes! I guess that water is not as valuable as my own water is!

You want rain? Come and take all of the crud I've gotten today. Between the sleet and the rain I'm sick and tired of this wet crap. Give me heat and humidity. I'm ready for it.

On a side note my injectors aren't near as smokey now in this 30 some odd degree weather.

Saw the white stuff falling most of day yesterday at Six Flags (my first time there), but it kept the crowds down. Got back to Stephenville and it had more accumulation on the ground.
OK guys, I know you know more about 2nd gens but what causes a 3rd gen to stutter at the start? It kicks off and as it starts it sounds like it bogs down, kinda like it's not getting as strong a dose of fuel all the sudden. And I've had a water in fuel light going on for the last week (but I think that is water coming in from the fuel cap (not the stock cap))

Might be water in the fuel or your starting to lose your fuel pump.

DD, I wouldn't be ignoring that water in fuel light!!

You may have a got a bad tank of fuel or like you said ....getting water in your tank somehow. Water does nasty things to our injectors!!!

And it might be your FP going out like BB said.
