Re: Cheap items
My dealer is getting a lesson on how inventive I can be on selecting cheap parts to buy:-)
1. All the metric self tapping screws and speednuts for the fender splash guards and just about every other panel that attaches to the body. You can never have too many.
2. Any plastic clip, plug, or cover that goes anywhere (an exploded parts list is wonderful to have.)
3. Complete stock of filters (when, not if, you replace all fluids)
4. Rubber
5. Distilled water for both the coolant and the windshield washers
6. Jumper or the fuel pump relay
7. Possible Wild Card ******* Replacement rubber fuel hose for joining the left side to the right side of the fuel injection system. While this is not the cheapest part, I have seen pin holes develop in other high pressure hoses. It makes me believe this would be cheap maintainance (compared to the alternative).
