Don't forget a couple of twenties!! Its amazing what you can fix with them.
And maybe a set of vice grips.

Subject: Emergency kit
I'm putting together an emergency repair kit for my car. My intent is to be
able to repair some common breakdowns on the highway. I would like to keep it
small enough so that I could move it to various cars that I drive. So far, I
have come up with the following items:
Spare tire (of course)
Jack for above
Flares
Fire extinguisher
Emergency fan belt
Emergency radiator hose repair (looks like duct tape on steriods)
Gallon of water
Electrical tape and spare fuses
Duct tape and bailing wire
Large blanket (keeps my clothes clean)
GoJO and a few rags (to get my hands clean)
Jumper cables
Assortment of tools including but not limited to the following:
Wire cutters
Pliers
Adjustable wrench
Leather gloves
If I suffer a major problem, I have a cell phone so I can call for a tow truck.
Can anyone else think of something that might come in handy?
Thanks in advance,
Scott
