About Tom Boy
I am an Episcopal priest, an adjunct college instructor, and a jill-of-all trades! I drive a light pick-up truck with one tool bag for small repairs, etc. when I am out and about, and another tool bag for my miniature travelling office.
My favorite charities are Habitat for Humanity and the Heifer Project. Remember: Any one of us could wind up at the bottom of the ladder tomorrow morning -- helping others is a way to help ourselves and make the whole world better!

A Car That Won't Start
There are many possible reasons a vehicle will not start. A very simple problem that can be very embarrassing is being out of fuel. This happens to most of us once in our lifetime, and if we are lucky we see what the problem is before help arrives on the scene! Once this simple matter has been ruled out, the next question is whether the problem is in the electrical, fuel or mechanical system... read more »
