I'd like to get a replacement fuel pump relay for my 1990 245.. I see there's the "Proparts" relay which is $15 at eEuro and there's also a KAE which is $30... Mind you my fuel pump relay is fine, but I'd like to have a spare as I'm moving out to the boonies and don't want to be stranded. If that's the problem... Not saying it ever would be, but I'd like to be prepared as my 245 going to be my only mode of transport. But it's solid and has plenty of new parts, that I don't fear a breakdown.. Famous last words, I know.

Anyone have an opinion on this? Anyone have any "must haves" as far as spare parts they can recommend? Besides the usual fuses, mann filters, and set of tools? I will have mail order capabilities, so it's not that remote, but hopefully you catch my drift. I'm assuming there's a big box auto store close enough too.

In a perfect world, everyone would have a spare set of everything, but I've got a pretty good eye and I'm pretty good at maintenance and predicting small jobs before they turn into major projects.. Anyways, thanks again for any input you may have.
