I'm assembling a small tool bag to carry in the trunk - what tools do you carry?

That's a good question. I guess I can carry a patch kit and a small OEM 12v tire inflator, something like what a Boxster comes with. It's slightly larger than a paperback book. I REALLY don't want to use the flat tire goo if I can avoid it. I'm really trying to keep this whole tool bag small and within some sort of reasonable size and weight limit. What do you carry and what do you do regarding a possible flat tire, Patrick?

I have a small air compressor that could hopefully limp me home with a leak, but I also carry two cans of Fix 'o Flat. If I ever had to use it to get home then I would cut the tire off the wheel with a cut off wheel and snips, peel it off, throw the tire in a dumpster, clean the wheel up good, and mount a new tire.

Yes, just make sure the cord to your cigarette lighter is long enough so you can reach the farthest wheel.

If you have a holley carb…you know why.

Other than that call a flatbed.

Ive got a spare narrow knock off, but haven’t figured out a low clearance jack…
