Dear Joe:

I hope you can help me. The other day, I set off for work leaving my
husband in the house watching TV. My car started stalling and then it
broke down about a mile down the road and I had to walk back to get my
husband's help. When I got home, I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in
our bedroom with the neighbor's daughter! I am 32, my husband is 34,
and the neighbor's daughter is 19. 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. He won't go to counseling and
I'm afraid I am a wreck and need advice urgently. 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,

No and he failed to mention the fuel regulator.
