Dear Mr. John M:

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 I
couldn't believe my eyes. He was in the bedroom with a neighbor lady.

I am 32, my husband is 34 and we have been married for twelve years.
When I confronted him, he broke down and admitted that he'd 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. I love him very much,
but ever since I gave him the ultimatum he has become increasingly
distant. I don't feel I can get through to him anymore.

Can you
please help?

Sincerely,
Mrs.. Sheila B.

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 jubilee clips holding
the vacuum pipes onto the inlet manifold. If none of these approaches
solves the problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty,
causing low delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber.

I hope this helps.

John M.

Brilliant!

To be fair, she didn't say what she needed help on, and the first thing she mentioned was the car cutting out. I'd have probably given her the same advice lol.

For a man who can't maintain his wife's car, he can sure give his neighbor a thorough tune-up.
