For anyone like me who derped this quest completely, you have to use your rocket launcher on the robots standing around the oil pools.
Not sure why it took me so long to figure that out >.<

What to do
Description
Uncle Krixel's a tough one but he won't be going anywhere on foot with his leg broken. He has a flying machine he brought from Azeroth that can fly us out of here. Problem is, the engine's busted. I'll need some parts to fix the thing. My car's wasted but those broken shredders just outside of town should have what we need. We don't have time to break them down by hand so just use this rocket launcher and blow 'em apart. Anything that survives the blast should be strong enough to use on the engine.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Skimming Off the Top
That flying machine is our ticket out of here but its fuel tank is bone dry! We're right next to the oil fields but with the infected out there we don't have time to run a line up here so we need to improvise.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Sporicide
It's revolting, absolutely disgusting, infuriating even! I'm talking about seeing those spore creatures walking around Pinchwhistle Point. While I'm working on the machine here how about you go out and kill off some of those spore creatures?
