High-quality preparation for the road guarantees a pleasant car trip
The most in-demand will be a tow rope made of polymer material, characterized by low weight and high strength. This rope takes up minimal space, but in case of an emergency, it can pull out any passenger car and not break. You will no longer have to use seat belts that can break with a sharp jerk.
Be sure to stock up on fuel canisters, into which you need to pour high-quality fuel from a branded gas station. After all, at a "left" gas station there may be "charged" gasoline with various additives that can easily kill the car on the first try. It is better not to risk it and buy several plastic or tin fuel canisters along with funnels. With the help of the latter, gasoline is poured into the fuel tank neck.
By the way, if you are traveling in a Chinese car, it is most convenient to purchase the necessary components in the online auto parts store DragonParts. Here you will not only find for your Chery Amulet 480-1012010 oil filter, but also many other spare parts for various Chinese-made cars.
It is also important to take a jack and a compressor with you on the road. Using outdated versions of hydraulic jacks is not always considered advisable – they are heavy and oil can leak at any moment. It is better to buy a lightweight and durable screw jack that can lift any car to the required height.
For inflating tires, it is best to use electric tire pumps instead of foot or hand pumps. It is worth buying a compact and efficient electric tire pump that, working from the cigarette lighter, can inflate one or several tires in turn. Additional nipples allow you to inflate an air mattress, a bicycle tire, or even an inflatable pool during active recreation!
But first, you need to remove the punctured wheel. For this purpose, it is vital to have a high-quality set of open-end or box wrenches. Buying beautiful and unreliable Chinese sets of wrenches is not always considered advisable – at the slightest effort, they can easily break. But first, if the threaded connections are "stuck", it is recommended to spray them with water or kerosene, wait a bit, and only then unscrew them.
Sometimes so many personal belongings are collected that they simply do not fit in the trunk of a passenger car. In the latter case, it is advantageous to buy a roof rack, which is connected not by an outdated method (via gutters), but exclusively to roof rails. If you buy a streamlined roof rack in the form of a "torpedo", a lot of things will fit inside. And due to low aerodynamic drag, the fuel savings of the car will be impressive. And the roof rack, no matter how expensive it is, can pay for itself literally on the first trip!
