If paying isn't an issue I'd love to tell you all about these people call called Mech-an-ics, they live in magical places called work-shops in which you'll find all maner of mystical devices which they refer to simply as : 'tools'..
I've heard many a tale of these so called Mech-an-ics fixing peoples propelled chariots in exchange for currency.

I don't really know what a car is anymore. First time I've driven either of my cars in weeks today due to the snow. Sadly I can't help out, have t anywhere to work on cars anymore these days.

the book time is probably only about 5 or 6 hours for it, find a local backstreet garage, most up here charge about £30 a hour. So roughly £150 labour, I cant see you getting anybody to help you do it at the side of the road as a homer for less than £100. I know I wouldnt.
I know you say youve not got the money but im sorry to say I cant see anyone offering to do it for less than what ive said unless you've got any good mates who can help.
Anyway good luck with it, hope you get it sorted

also if you can brave the weather you dont need somewhere to do it, grab a set of axle stands and a shove a old jacket and wooly hat on and get cracking into it outside!
