I make my living with my delivery van. 10 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $300 goes: • Labor charges: $25 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $25 • fuel pump replacement (parts): $250 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Carlo
