Just when does it end? From past experience I carry a generator board, HWH pump, HWH misc. parts, spare tire, starter, AC unit caps, Lord knows how many tools I probably don't need, etc. I carry so many parts that I had to make a list of them and keep it in the parts bin as I just can't recall how many parts I have. When does it end? Today the topic I just read was water pumps. Do I need to carry a spare water pump as I don't want to be without water? Some places I camp are far from decent supply places.
In my experience, water pumps are almost bullet proof and usually only require disassembly, cleaning, some silicone or Vaseline on the gaskets and then being sure to tighten the screws up evenly during reassembly. Be sure to check the pressure sw. for grim as well. Neighbor changed one out recently while on the road and leaking. Gave it to me. Did my thing on it, as well as my old one that I kept for a spare, just in case.
This on my old coach, retired and for sale.
