Message	leaving Baltimore in rush hour traffic, so I had to pull over onto the shoulder, de-pressurize the fuel system and install a new length of injection hose with cars whizzing by the whole time. Of the many times something would fail or burst as I was going along and I`d have to get a new one in at a gas station or parking lot or whatever, that was easily the scariest. I was going to make a short list of tools one should carry in their 90s sportscar, but it got a bit long. Lengths of hoses, lengths of wire...bottles of fluids...sockets, screwdrivers, wrenches...gasket sealant...ohm tester...a timing light...you get the idea.
