Episode 2 of the Euro trip series. In this episode we discuss the spares, tools and fluids that I have and will continue to take along for the journey.

I liked this a lot and if Roger and I had taken a spare alternator when travelling to France it would have saved a lot of stress. Instead we travelled back with 5 spare batteries and just made it back on the last one 😅

What a fantastic alternative 😃 plus you made it! Makes for a great story to tell 📖
I often think it’ll be the parts I don’t take that’ll inevitably fail! 🤞 hope not.

All the spares fingers crossed no repairs!!!

👍 do you know how I time up my ABS pump?

KSeal

Wow that’s an extensive breakdown kit, I bet your fuel consumption through the roof 🙈

[@retromechanic2238]

I know, it was overkill. Bottle of KSeal and some engine oil to top up - job done next time 😁
