133 Spares to carry
General Information
1 metre of each of the 3 hydraulic pipe sizes plus flaring tool
1 metre of reinforced plastic hose to fit each of the above.
Reinforced tape to fix any of those small drain lines that break (super
glue as well).
====
Be aware of the return hose from the pressure regulator. This hose is
under constant stress as the regulator cuts in or out and is prone to
burst sooner or later (when you least expect it, of course). This hose
consist of not one but several small return hoses and is a bit of a pain
to replace and expensive too. Usually the hose burst just a few dm's from
the regulator a nice and easy way to stay safe is to carry a spare pice
of reinforced hose, a metal tube and a few hose clips to hold it together
with. Tools needed; screwdriver and knife. The best thing is that this
repair is easy to do even on the roadside and if done properly it lasts
for many years. Good ain't it?!
Unfortunately I don't live as I learn and don't carry this with me,
although I know I should. In my car I simply carry screwdrivers, water,
windscreen wash, engine oil and blood.
