WALTER’S ADVICE COLUMN

Dear Walter:

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 on our couch kissing the neighbours daughter. I am 32, my husband is 34, and the neighbours 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. 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 dirt 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.

Walter

@Cakers3 

You have read enough of my posts to know I have said this: "I never give advice"! I do tell of my personal experiences with certain  topics, and knowledge I have garnered over many decades on this planet.

Advice? There might be 1 or 2 things I could consider myself as an expert, but so could many millions of others. 

Your example happens to be motor vehicles, some of which I am very familiar with the terminology. Woman?  I will pass on that one. Never claimed expertise, and the men that do, SMH
