    Two quick-thinking Emergency Medical Technicians saved four people from potential carbon monoxide poisoning in Queens, the FDNY said Saturday.

    EMTs Zache Cox and Frantzi Honore noticed carbon monoxide detectors were registering high levels of the deadly gas when they arrived at a sick call on 192nd St. in Jamiaca at 11 p.m. on Friday night, authorities said.

    Cox and Honore — from Station 54 in Springfield Gardens — evacuated four people from the home, the FDNY said.

    Turns out a defective boiler was to blame for the noxious leak, authorities said.
