Spare Parts

[Scott Forman]

What's in your spare parts compartment for on-the-road problems?
Trying to put a list together and don't want to forget anything.

Thanks

Mostly tools, but I carry parts too, and patch items.

Duct tape, bailing wire, electrical tape, 12v circuit tester, several
lengths/gauges/colors of wire, some with alligator clips, Belts, light-
bulbs, fuses (for the glass ones under the dash, in the overhead, and
in the battery compartment), Sporlan rebuild kit, nylon air lines
(several sizes) and fittings to repair damaged copper air lines, fuel
filters, distilled water, ATF (in case needed to prime fuel system),
spare inner and outer lug-nuts (LH and RH), Spare ignition and
headlamp as well as other switches, miscellaneous spare circuit-
breakers, hose washers, just an initial list. And oh yes, a spare
Dupree dump-valve seal ;~)

I think there's a lot more, this is from memory.

From my old 'hot rod' days we carried two things, a Hammer and a
Prophylactic, if you can't fix it, @#%&* it.

That's like the jokes about the BMW motorcycles, which arguably have gotten
so technical that they only toolkit worth carrying is a cell phone and a
credit card ...

Oh boy, here we go! Better watch it. You will have the DW's purse
permanently implanted in the back of your head. Furthur, you may
never own a BB. Fun, those days were fun, really fun. I was single
all those years. Today fun has a different definition, to include
responsibility. What a drag. Six years ago I finally married a woman
who became the driving force behind our RV lifestyle. In fact, she
approves every message I send. LOL--LOL. I bet your wife does also.

Good luck on your search.

Leroy,
You are correct. After I hit the enter key I began to have second
thoughts about the comment. But the DW doesn't read the forum so I
am home free from that perspective.

I didn't mean it that way. Actually, I laughed my tail off.
So did the DW. I was trying to express in my own way how the world
has changed. Maybe I didn't get it done. I kinda sorta liked those
days. We gotta have some fun in life these days. Find a Bird and come
join us . It is not as bad as it may seem.
I'm still crazy after all these years off center leaning to the right.

Leroy,
I guess what I meant was that I sometimes forget that this is a
public forum and that I could offend some of the readers
unintentionally.

I absolutely miss the old days when life was so simple and
spontaneous. I currently have two sons in college, one will be a
junior and the other a freshman this fall. My daughter graduated
this May with a masters in geriatric social work, just in time for
my wife and I to take advantage of her education.
I switched employers 5 years ago so I am tight on vacation time.
I expect to retire in 4 to 5 years and would absolutely love to just
jump in a Bluebird and go where the spirit moved. I think it would
be very wise to get started sooner to work out the bugs in a vintage
bird, and to work out the bugs RVing in general. I just have a very
tough effort to gain agreement from the DW. Oh, we could rent and
take scheduled, limited trips, but where would the adventure be? I
want a toy to occupy my time and keep me interested and busy. I'm
not much for sitting in a lawn chair watching the tomatoes grow in
the garden, if you know what I mean.

Gardner

OK, I'm rambling. See what happens when you don't have a bluebird
in the driveway to keep you busy?
