Help Favour replace the engine head gasket and return to work
Favour drives for a living in Ikeja, and a broken engine head gasket has stopped all income for 7 weeks.
🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria1,121 views
I make my living with my food truck. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $200 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $90
• Labor charges: $50
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $15
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
