Bonjour,
Joe spent another day with the mechanic. They discovered today that the people at the place where they had taken the fuel pump yesterday had stolen the new fuel injectors. Joe still had the old ones; so they just put those back together.
The problem with the car was the fuel pump, and everyone here told them that the pump could not be fixed. So, the mechanic and Joe took the three different fuel pumps that Joe had purchased all apart. They found the faulty pieces and replaced those with good pieces from one of the other pumps. Then, they put one pump back together. This evening when they got everything put back together, the vehicle was no longer smoking. Joe is going to take the vehicle for inspection in the morning. Please pray that it passes this time. That would be a big blessing!
The boys and I went for a walk with Sarah and Margie this afternoon. Gilbert went to play with the Litson girls while I got supper ready. He wasn’t too eager to come home. Usually when we ask him about what he did, he just repeats our question. But, today, he told me a story about jumping on the trampoline.
This evening when Joe told Gilbert it was bed time, he said, “Mommy needs to type first.” He sees me type the daily e-mail every evening, and he knew that I hadn’t done it yet.
A demain,
