Hmm, that does make sense - and I've always had panic attacks, but this whole 'one or more a day' thing is just stupid. Sometimes I even feel a panic attack coming on if I think about having a panic attack.
Gasoline has a flash point of -97 degF, so I don't think the fuel itself is the problem. However, if a lot of water is in your tank, then the pump can pick it up and it will freeze in the lines. You can get a methyl alcohol additive to add to the tank to defrost fuel lines. I'd still look at your electrical system, most importantly the battery. +(^-^)-
It's my hubs car that might be frozen up - and there could be water in there somewhere? I've got no clue. I just know his car worked fine until it started getting cold. My car is just retarded - and my hubs agrees that it's electrical. He was just not looking forwards to getting under the car in the snow and 0 degree weather this last weekend. So my car is still being unreliable, but at least it started this morning.
Sometimes water can get in there. For example, here the wet season is really long, so there's a lot of opportunity for water vapor to sneak in past the filler flap. Add that tiny bit of water up over a year, and you have a blob of water slooshing around under the fuel, and eventually, some of it gets picked up by the pump, esp if you run it all the way empty. Running for long periods of time on the freeway can prevent this from becoming a problem.
However, it could be other reasons as well. Cold really taxes batteries and electrical system components (not to mention the thicker oil at low temps to struggle with), so I'd also look over his car the same. ;)
Water can also come in with the intake air, and if the car is not run for more than ten minutes at operating temperature, water can condense in the oil pan, and freeze (it's under the oil, so it's closest to the ground). Running the car at op temps for more than ten minutes at a time will prevent this from happening, so if he's doing that already, then it's not the problem. (^-^)b
1. what color does he prefer? while i use burt's bees lip shimmer, (heh, typed 'shimmy' there first) geekboy uses burt's bees plain lip balm. pretty much the same thing, but mine have color
( ... )
Pan's favorite seems to be my Mary Kay lip gloss in Beach Bronze - a sandy pink color that shimmers. It also smells like sugar cookies. His second favorite is my Burt's Bees shimmer in raisin - also shimmery and a brown/red. That one is minty.
And regarding my periods, it's most likely related to my IUD and my thyroid problems. They don't play nice together.
We get bunches of rain in April, but it's nothing like WA.
