No shit bug, they were calling for 1-3 up here but it's snowing pretty good. Guess that's the price we have to pay to get 40's this week.

Exxon Mobil Corp.’s Baytown and Beaumont plants, Marathon Petroleum Corp.’s Galveston Bay refinery and Total SE’s Port Arthur facility, all face at least several weeks to resume normal operations. Those refineries just aren't built for that kind of cold. Combine that with intermittent power issues and bad things happen. Cooling water and dead leg freeze ups, are generally the first issues that come about in those cold conditions.

After this little shut down off-line incident, I expect it to be at least $3.00 a gallon by May.

I was pretty frickin' cold, my furnace quit working and woke up to 45 degrees (inside). The wind chill at that time was around -22, FML.
I had bought a new thermostat (digital) about a week prior, but hadn't put it in yet. The old one was hard to read and difficult for my mom to adjust (she had some health issues a couple years ago, so I had her move it with me). So anyway, I put the new one in while waiting for her to wake up. She got up and said, "Gee, it's really cold in here". LOL I told her to get dressed and I'd drop her off at the store while I went over to Menards to pick up a few things. We get back home (put a pot roast in the oven) blahblahblah.... and I continued my troubleshooting efforts .... finally figuring out that the stupid sensor rod was dirty. Cleaned that sucker off and HEAT!!!!!!! Why the hell did it take so long to even think of that? Frozen Brain, I guess. |

Indeed, the flame senor rod is the weak link in my unit as well. I used to do the same thing, remove it, gently work it with emery cloth and reinstall it. I can tell you this, it won't last as long once some of the surface coating has been removed. I did some digging and punched in the part number and found I was able to buy that rod on Amazon for $6.52, so I ordered 3 of them. I figured for that price, I might as well.

The thing is, the refineries that are currently shut down, produce 20% of the countries product. Nothing good can come of that, practically with a long delay in startups.
