Hello All,

I was wondering if someone could suggest a list of parts to always have on hand in your garage for a 1987 Targa.

Thanks-
Rob

I have a 78 so I won't comment too much as some may be different. I find as a rule, parts do little good in the garage, but having a few spare parts in the car can be a life saver.
I already used my spare belt once, and carry fuses, a rag, flashlight, tool kit, black and red relays ( for you i think it would be a DME relay ) .

At home in the garage I have spare plugs, oil filters a fuel pump, another belt, fuel filter, lots of vacuum lines, spare wiper blades. Thi is just to make maintanance easier so I don't have to order it all if I feel like doing some maintanance on the spur of the moment.

Check out this thread about a guy who was taking a long cross country trip. Here are the list of things people recommended that he carry in his car: https://rennlist.com/forums/911-turbo-930-forum/335493-trying-to-avoid-getting-stranded.html

You should always have a DME relay in the glove box. When they go out, you will be able to turn the car over but it will not start as the fuel pump is disabled. Ask me how I know...

One more thing: get a piece of string about 24" long. You can use it in case your gas release cable breaks. Ask me how I know...
