Why Men Don't Write Advice Columns

[Bodgit-fixit-run]

Hi all

I just had to share this with you all. It was sent to me by one of my counselling students.

I suspect it wasn't a RAV4. However there obviously was a RAVer next door. :lol:

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 in our bedroom with the neighbour's daughter. I am 41, my husband is 44, and the neighbour'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 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. 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 tothe injectors.

I hope this helps,

Walter

Sounds like something Anchorman would write... ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

[anchorman]

You have to keep focused chatters!!!

Anyway

Why was he depressed and distant? At least he lived to tell the tale after a roll around the carpet with a 22 year old. Not sure anchorwoman would allow that concession. I think my next post would be; "anybody know how to remove a 4.3 (sideways) from the !Removed!?"

Was her car trying to tell her "summats up,luv -get back home QUICK!" ? On the techy side, I agree, always check electrics first for a 'sudden' cut-out. Fuel problems usually make their presence known by juddering/'kangaroo-hopping' (or flames emerging out of the engine bay!) Hee hee :D
