I make my living with my delivery van. 7 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal. Where the $250 goes: • Towing and inspection: $15 • fuel pump replacement (parts): $185 • Labor charges: $50 If you're reading this, thank you. - Marwan

  1. Thank you all. We're at 51% now ($127). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the mechanic and confirmed the amounts.

  • Good luck. Hope the shop reopens soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
