Why men don't write advice columns 
 

Dear Ted, 
 
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 tried to make out  that he went into the back yard and heard a lady scream, had come to her  rescue but found her unconscious. He'd carried the woman back to our  house, laid her in bed, and began CPR. When she awoke she immediately  began thanking him and kissing him and he was attempting to break free  when I came back. But when I asked him why neither of them had any clothes on, 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, 
Suzy Fox 
 
 
 
Dear Suzy, 
 
A car stalling after being driven a short distance can be caused by a  variety of faults. Start by checking that there is no debris in the fuel  filter. If it is clear, check the clips holding the vacuum lines onto  the inlet manifold for air leaks. If none of these approaches solves the  problem, it could be that the fuel pump itself is faulty, causing low  delivery pressure to the carburetor float chamber. 
 
I hope this helps. 
 
Good luck, 
Ted
