Why Men Don't Write Advice Columns
Dear Simon,
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 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 neighbour's daughter. 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. 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?
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 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 injectors.
I hope this helps,
Simon.

And oh, so true!

I'd say check the alternator and distribution cap too!
Which bit is the alternate cap then Lemmy ?....Is this a form of contraception that I'm unfamiliar with....Or are we talking about a kepi sort of hat ?
I only ask for information...I'm learning so much from you guys on the forum......Especially that nice Mr Nik.
Before I forget to say it .....Hope every single one of you has a SUPERB and really enjoyable Christmas !
Very best wishes to you all - Phil.
LOL! :D

such a fine line between the education and corruption of the mind :d
