Try unplugging your fuel bowl heater and replace the fuse.

Not sure if the #22 on your year Ex controls the fuel bowl heating element (known to short circuit and cause no start issues) but I figure you could try it really quick while I see if I can do some searching and confirm if it does.

Do you have your manual? Can you look up fuse #22?

Ok, quick search turns up this thread that might help you.

Fuse number 22 doesn't control the fuel bowl heating element like I was hoping. It woulda been a quick an easy fix if it had.

Clay carries the GPCM at a very good price. 149.00 I think.
