Just a chuckle......8>)
Dear Uncle 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 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
making mad passionate love to her. 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, 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 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 carburettor float chamber.
I hope this helps. Walter

I don't understand... A stalling car is nothing to laugh about, it's a serious issue that needs to get resolved :-)

It was abundantly clear to me upon reading this that "Uncle Walter" is something of a throwback who really doesn't pay attention.
Cars haven't used caburetors in years!
