On a side note, I had another fuel related problem today.
No start / hard start (eventually started, but took a lot of cranks).
No code, not even a "pending code" and nothing amiss... only likely source is vapor lock.
Last year, I solved the problem by unplugging the fuel heater.
What happens when we transition from winter to summer fuel --- the winter stuff just vaporize too easily.
Another reason why the more I think of how many problems we are having... the more I think we are not dealing with variability in fuel characteristics too well.
Update: went and unplugged the fuel heater... it worked last time.
