Most sore throats result from viral infections, usually colds, but possibly influenza. In children or adults who were not immunized, the measles, chickenpox or whooping cough can cause a sore throat. Sometimes, a canker sore or fever blister forms in the throat, causing intense pain upon swallowing.
Many vehicles available today come with fuel pump shut-off switches. These devices are essentially circuit breakers that sit inside you car's airbag control module's inertia switch, which is supposed to trigger when the vehicle comes to a sudden stop.
Near the bottom of your furnace is a switch that normally says Pilot, On and Off.. Find this switch and turn it to the Off position. Wait at least five minutes. This is important because it gives the gas time to dissipate, which is necessary to avoid possibly starting a fire.
