Dear Walter

I hope you can help me. The other day, I set off for
work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as
usual. I hadn't driven more than a mile down the road
when the engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt.
I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got
home I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom
with the neighbor's daughter. I am 32, my husband is
34, and the neighbor's daughter is 22. We have been
married for ten years.

When I confronted him, he broke down and admitted that
they had been having an affair for the past six months. I
told him to stop or I would leave him. He was made redundent
from his job six months ago and he says he has been feeling
increasingly depressed and worthless. I love him very much
but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become
increasingly distant. He won't go to counseling and
I'm afraid I can't get through to him anymore.

Can you please help?

Sincerely,
Sheila























Dear Sheila
A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a variety of faults
with the engine. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel line.
If it is clear, check the vacuum pipes and hoses on the intake manifold and also check all earth wires.
If none of these approaches solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low delivery pressure to the injectors. I hope this helps.

Regards,
Walter.
