When I read this, I wonder if I worry too much.
I carry just about everything under the sun, from fuel filters, fuel
pump, belt,
fuses, bulbs, elec. tape, mats, gloves, coolant, and much more, plus a
great
arrangement of tools and hand books, down to the colour co-ordinated
flash light.

I have yet to learn to trust my little ancient automobile, and I do
believe one
should be prepared for the most commonly known
failures................now, shall
I add to this list a spare set of carburetors..........?
Must get that cell phone.....
Liv, still spitting with all gauges finally working, a  repaired
steering that
has made driving so much more pleasant.
Next.......
