...I just wanted to let you all in on something that I discovered with my old MH. You might want to check the little plastic bushings that hold the windshield wiper linkage together. Mine have fallen apart twice and left me with a difficult drive in the rain with no wipers! After the second time this happened I finally got wise and fixed them all so hopefully this never happens again.
And you found the new bushings where? I "stole" (with owners permission) an old set from a '76 that was rotting at a camp ground in the White mountains and hope they last. Be nice to have an "extra" set when this set "goes way"
What Griff said would be the best way to go but i fixed mine by making the bushings out of Nylon at work on a lathe. Then I fastened everything together with a washer and an e-clip.
It would be nice to be able to fill a tackle box with the needed parts and tools in case of a major malfunction. The only things I can think of are obvious ones like fuses, extra wire, bulbs, a spark plug or 2, duct tape, and if you are only going to carry 1 screwdriver, make sure it is a standard head. I doubt there are any phillips head screws anywhere on these machines unless they were put there by a PO.
