You are insane! What would warrant an emergency oil change - pray tell?

Duh, when you're doing F&F stunts.. We all know that Mitsubishi Eclipse's floor boards start flying apart at top speeds, but what you didn't know is, a Ford Contour's oil pan comes off like a prom dress when you hit speeds of 175mph.

I have a pretty complete metric and standard socket set, screw drivers, a set of Torx bits, tire pressure gauge, 4-way lug wrench, wire cutters, spare fuses (duh!) and washer fluid.

Oh, and perhaps the most essential tool of all is a good quality headlamp. I have a Petzl 4 LED one. They're compact and long-lasting. All of the tools in the world are great, but if you can't see what you're doing, then there's no point in carrying tools at all.

Fine... but the next time you check under YOUR hood, and see that your PS or brake fluid is low.. just go inside, buy a WHOLE NEW bottle, just so you can top it off.. either that or continue to drive it and possibly draw air into the system... personally, I would rather carry 12oz of weight in brake fluid than re-bleed my entire car cause I wanted to be THAT MUCH lighter.
