Dear Don:,
I hope you can help me here. The other day I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't gone more than a mile down the road when my engine conked
out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got home from work I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in our bedroom with the neighbour lady. I am 36, my husband is 38, and we have been married for twelve 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 let go from his job six months ago, and he says he has been feeling
increasingly depressed and worthless. Most evenings he drowns his sorrows at Kelsey's Bar. I am working the night shift now so as to supplement our income from my day
job at the factory so we don't lose the house. I love him very much, but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly distant. He won't go to counselling and I'm afraid I can't get through to him anymore. Can you please help?
Confused Dear Confused,
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 grounding 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 carburettor float chamber. I hope this helps. Don
Cheers Phil
