Re: [DML] What parts should I carry with me?

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good point - here's a much better spare part strategy: Since you have 
already spent the money on the new spare part, INSTALL IT on the car. 
If you must carry something, carry the OLD one. This will raise the 
average reliability of the car, and you still have the old part (as 
good as when you removed it) to loan to someone else! This works for 
everything from belts to fuel pumps. 

Dave S (I do sometimes carry a spare used fuel pump, it has now been 
installed in at least 3 different cars as a "loaner".)
