Subject:Spare Parts List - Input
From:gary hradek

Stan has a good list here as it does not take too much
I should like add and modify Stan's list as his seems
very reasonable   I would not include a fuel filter if
you change your own filter on a regular bases and you
shop for gas and notice they have filters on the hoses
of the pump.   One quart of oil is enough unless you
do not want to shop for oil.   The gas additive is
only important for cold weather travel.
Adding to Stan's list,
   most important
  11)BRAKE and CLUTCH fluid

12) duct tape
13) 1/2 inch hose repair splice to splice out the
  heater hoses
14) spare light swich(assume you have fuses already)
15) jumper leads about 1 foot long from radio  shack
to jumper defective relays
16) brake light bulb with holder that could be used as
tester
17) bungy cords
18) tools(defined by user's ability)
19) The hose from the right head to the T if you have
not replaced it yet.   Hottest hose
20) Ron's or ken's phone number
