Preparation for BG road trip
I'm not sure if this is needed but someone mentioned to me on the phone the other day about taking a 20 year old vehicle on a road trip and some of the things that might be encountered so I thought I would start a thread on it.
Some of you guys have made this trek to BG many times and have dealt with a lot of unexpected situations. There are several new owners (me, for one) that this will be their first long road trip in their Z. (I drove mine to Dallas from Boulder 6 months ago when I bought it but I also had my brother pulling a trailer behind me so I wasn't too worried about it). Please make suggestions on things that should be brought along. Off the top of my head I would think: 1. Fuel injector cleaner/Fuel additive - in case you pick up some bad gas 2. Tire plug kit 3. Tow hooks 4. Small portable air compressor/jump starter If you're coming as a group I would suggest spreading the responsibility around and one guy bring the air pump and tire plug kit, another guy bring the fuel additive, etc, etc... Maybe I'm over thinking this but the last thing I want to see happen is someones trip be ruined because they didn't think to bring something along.
