Help Utami replace the fuel pump and return to work
Utami drives for a living in Magelang, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 12 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $210. 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 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $210 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $120
• Labor charges: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $45
• Towing and inspection: $5
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Thinking of you. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Durban.
What exactly is the $210 for?
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. fuel pump replacement (parts) is the biggest at $120. Thanks, that means a lot.
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Braunschweig so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Magelang
Best of luck, Utami. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Faisalabad.
