I also was able to start it today with a slight 'stumble" it reached idle and ran fine. I think I'm going to repair stuff I can do. Fuel filter, tubing etc.

I'm open for any updates.

Thanks
Suggest you return to your guy and get him to read the codes, and give you a list of them. That is certain to be cheaper than randomly replacing items that may or may not be the cause. No problem checking around under the hood and looking for loose vacuum lines, etc, but replacing items isn't the same as repairing. Just my $0.02
