Car trouble center. How may I help you?
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
My car won't start! Stupid old car!
|
|
|
|
|
A:
|
Hold on, before you kick your car let's go through some possible problems.
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
Fine.
|
|
|
|
|
A:
|
Ok, first of all, can you turn the key in the ignition?
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
Yeah! I am here with my friend and he thinks it may be the spark plug or the starter motor.
|
|
|
|
|
A:
|
Those are possible problems, but tell me, when you turn the key, do you hear the starter motor crank?
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
Yeah, it sounds like it usually does when I start the car, but nothing else happens. The engine won't start. Should I maybe press the accelerator?
|
|
|
|
|
A:
|
No. If you step on the accelerator pedal you can flood the carburetor and your car will never start.
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
So what do you think it is?
|
|
|
|
|
A:
|
I know this may seem like a silly question, but does your car have gasoline?
|
|
|
|
|
B:
|
Umm. yeah! Right! I got the car started! Thanks for your help! I told you to fill the tank!
