it's back to the 16th century medieval cruelty. it's one run that remains in the serious stable and this and that. so it's your up to date. i have a windows update for you at the top of the i'll got office from you of the team. the each tells my story of the people who planned me built a case have been lives to me. i am not saddam, depending on my secret, i have month to my cities, days will centuries and accompanied my country through its finest hours until the

day i nearly vanished starts to lie. 18 o d. w of the winery has been his way and as a country with the world's largest prison, crude oil reserves suffering through a fuel shortage. drive is key for hours sometimes overnight to just for a chance to fill that tanks. but the gasoline they finally push to isn't just gas is potentially lease so capable of turning that vehicles into ticking time. bomb. welcome to venezuela. what causes explode? i'm guessing is the fuel of mystery. venezuela struck black gold in the 19 twenty's of a time. it went from one of the poorest countries in the region to the richest in

south america, with the economy driven by oil money, venezuela presses. but until crude oil prices dropped the switch from capitalism to socialism. in the late ninety's, the plunge, the country into economic turmoil, venezuela has the capacity to serve its own fuel needs. but with the countries refineries in poor condition, petroleum imports from iran and mitigating the shortages. but the questionable quality of the fuel means the life of the average. venezuelan isn't easy. the truth is that i don't know where i'm going to get the money because i count on enough to keep the car and have food in my fridge. we once we queued for fuel for 10 hours, we arrived at 3 am and left at 4 pm. it's not easy then in 2018 or 29. so you for refineries were totally paralyzed. i meant the body shop

many and a carrasco is on a mission to find out why had called keeps failing. she's one of the many victims of the poor quality fuel the country contends with. today she's taking her call to a garage for a check, a comment. venezuela is very hard and expensive because the call sometimes fails to stop there. several components on the call a damaged like the fuel town. for example, i'm praying this just one of those components has an issue, the battery or the fuel pump. it wouldn't be completely damaged about that, but the selena for the car doesn't catch on fine. no. she's hosting high trusted mechanic rose will help diagnose the issues with the car not going uphill,

and i think one piston isn't working on these 3 estimates for what accounts relegates to the cylinders and the spark plugs. so and the cost is inspection. he then checks over the rest of the engine, but finds that it's in decent shape. still, mariana knows something is wrong with had call and got the cost starts making noises. if you want us to try know, we have to check the fuel system to see how the filters, i guess the problem doesn't seem to be here. okay? that how much will the fuel pump cost? if that won't be a way to go to the cost of the fuel pump is $20.00 plus $40.00 labor. because again, um okay, so you're telling me that it's a minimum or $70.00 you most of in that already we yes. at least $70.00 easy. what if it's the complete pump package going out the budget?

if it's the complete package, it costs a $120.00. it comes with the whole system. the com and the float on the news is disheartening. and then he, on his results is stretched thin and spending $120.00. i'm replacing the entire fuel system is something she just can't afford the out. the truth is that i don't know where i'm going to get the money because the content enough to keep a copy and have food in my fridge. in 2020, the venezuelan government announced impulse of oil from iran, with the price kept $0.50 per liter. but as time went by, the price is rose. well, the quality dropped him back to marie o a full my finance manager at the state turned oil and gas company, p. d. the say has his theories about what happened and tosses being organized. when the great crisis came, that was when the iranian ships arrive almost without gasoline and the whole

country and were expecting a lot for our ships to, oh yeah, that's what the gasoline was distributed for. a few days, but there was always doubt about the quality or so the change is one factor i'm kind of the and i really mean to attain is what ensures the human doesn't explode under pressure. but only when the spark plugs as far as the noise floating hoping to see on. but if the teen is low level here, when it is under pressure inside the engine, the over the ceiling that causes it to detonate will tend to explode. so i think a phone is that even for those whose costs are currently running fine, procuring fuel, it's time consuming dummy is a shift to hopes that a midnight quest will lead him to a full tank of gas. it's 10 minutes to 3 am. i am heading to the service station to get gas. well, let's hope i get to leave early and don't have to wait so many hours there for fuel

. he's heading to a gas station where residents can get subsidies to fuel on certain days, determined by that license plate number despite the cause queuing ahead of him. dummy has seen was and he's optimistic today and show it a little boy living there. today i came at 3 am on the line is really not very long and that i should be out here in about 7 am to mom a little bit. but let's say it takes 4 or 5 hours, or sometimes 6 or 7. 1 time it took like 10 hours, we arrived at 3 am and left at 4 pm. i mean, it's not easy. it's all about allowed. me could have both fuel from a station without to long queues that fuel that would be sold the international market prices in us dollars, something no tool venezuelans can afford for dummy the hours of

inconclusive stays. goals are the only way to ensure his call has a full tank of gas boiler and uh well it's going to be 6 am on the vocal. we're not far away about 10 or 12 cars, but bear with me on that. then i can go back and rest a little in the early morning to get my energy back la moda. wow. of where is that going with this dummy finally reaches the pump, is too dangerous to film for those stations that run by the meal paramilitary groups who often demand brides just to fill out. but for this we re venezuelan, its mission accomplished. well we're coming out of the gas station. we managed to fill up the tank. it's half past 6 in the morning. thank god. this via few shortage and the poor quality if you are

a far cry from when the countries oil industry was driving when the middle recorded . well, let's 1st remember that around 1998 or 99 pits rodeo to venezuela was ranked as the 2nd best oil company in the world. i am on the screen 20022003 flashes between the chavez, lead governments, and tbs se led to oil production dropping. it was the beginning of the end. many plants were failing. what? so you didn't have 40 plants operating. you had 30 or 20, i see that in 2018 or 2019 for refineries were totally paralyzed. and there were no fully functional refineries at all. it's all resulted in a situation of daily struggle for people like mariana today. she's of to have a fuel pump examined for the next, but for the marino has worked with fuel pumps over 10 years. in the past 5,

he's seen more or more problems caused by low quality get the feel nozzles over. he eats moods, the nozzles on top over, he eats, and the car ignites on the oxygen enters the car, doesn't explode, but it will catch on fire. pretty inspect the fuel pump on any on his car and the results a guess. does she feed them off there? okay, we're doing the check that will meet a look here. you have a branch connect, you're going to go to the model, connect the model, they'd be able to get. it's had it's time and there's nothing more that can be done . yeah. can you, i'm, i'm on the, i guess it, i won't move, i'm all new, feel problem module. you'll have to buy a new one in front of them. i didn't want you to move it as many honest as to try and replace the entire units or give up on her call entirely. that's as luck we'll have it gets the call that gives up one myself. i get the call failed again.

did you want to start? the mechanic told me it's the complete fuel pump because of the gasoline. eat, i have to wait for it to cool down to see if i can get home and see if it can be fixed me. that route or i'm going to sell the car also eating it. so i can't go on in this situation where every 5 minutes i break down because of the gasoline. that's what it's like to have a car in venezuela. with this west, las catalina owning a car in venezuela is twice a necessity. and well, johnny hopes that his tank of gas will last until he said now to refill the following week, liliana is confronted with a tough decision. can she really afford to run the call that constantly needs repairs because of substantive fuel? like many venezuelans, they suffer the consequences of both supply and low quality fuel, seemingly with no and insight. have you ever faced
