Help Noor replace the fuel pump and return to work
Noor drives for a living in San Jose, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 7 weeks.
Anywhere in the world1,598 views
I make my living with my taxi. 7 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 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 $1,750 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $65
• Labor charges: $270
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $1,415
Glad we found this place.

thinking of you and your family. Hope the shop reopens soon. God bless
Hope things get better soon. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Brooklyn
Hope you get there. Love from Colorado Springs.
Rooting for you, Noor. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Buenos Aires but we're thinking of you. Take care.
