I make my living with my motorbike. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $350. 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 $350 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Labor charges: $70
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $225
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

praying for you, Ochieng. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Arlington so I could bring a meal. Love from Ogbomosho.
Hope it all works out, Ochieng. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
