I usually forget something but with a bit of improvising you can go along way. Therefore it is time to put a dedicated tool kit together. Any suggestions what tools to bring on a trip? 3/8" metric socket set screwdriver set (2 x flathead, 2 x philips) needle nose pliers adjustable wrench What about parts? hose clips oil coolant belts - Anyone tried to use the adjustable belt made up of plastic links?
