Thanks to all who reached out. We are still out of service. We made it to a hotel in Rocky Mount North Carolina. I called Peter at Van Cafe. He was incredibly helpfully. He walked me through checking the OX sensor, OX sensor ground, fuel pressure regulator and a couple other most likely culprits. No luck, so he is going to overnight OX sensor, Computer, Mass Airflow meter, tune up kit, fuel injector temp sensor and a couple other items to my hotel. I'm to install the items one at a time and hope we nail it. He'll only charge me for the items I install. How nice is that?
