Help Heru replace the engine head gasket and return to work
Heru's my food truck is Heru's only source of income and needs an engine head gasket replacement costing $100.
🇮🇩 Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia472 views
I make my living with my food truck. 12 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $10
• Labor charges: $60
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $30
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
