I make my living with my delivery van. 5 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,750. Without the vehicle I earn nothing. I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask. I support my wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $1,750 goes: • fuel pump replacement (parts): $1,050 • Labor charges: $400 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $115 • Towing and inspection: $185 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Asher

  • Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 5 people at work.

    • Keep going, Asher. Hope you get there

      • Thinking of you and your family. Hope the shop reopens soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
