When I gothome I couldn't believe my eyes. He was in the bedroom with a neighbour 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 any more.

Can you please help?

Sincerely,

Mrs. Sheila Usk

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 jubilee 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
