porsche emergency kit...what do you carry?

[Nine8Six]

I keep a gallon of distilled water in the trunk. A Rag and that's it really.

Not "Porsche' but emergency related anyway; the frunk has a 42 pcs trauma kit (FirstAid, resuscitation kit, whatever you call those!). Stop bleedings, temporarily patch-up humans, what else it does lol Standard emergency equipment and knowledge for all my vehicles carrying love ones (touching wood now I tell ya).

Also have a roll of cheap grade duct tape. Multifunction but mainly used for those who want to play brave, walk or cycle in front of my car while I'm in motion. I certainly don't want one of these chap to bleed all over my carpet in case I have to take one to the hospital myself one day LOL

As for the flat fix, I have had several flats in the boonies and non of them was ever a small puncture that would have been fixed by a can of flat fix. They tend to be longer jagged cuts or blowouts. First thing I did when I got the 987 was to buy a spare tire and throw out the flat fix. Takes up a bit of room, but on 2 occasions I have had to limp home on the donut over 150 miles rather than wait upwards of 4 days to get a tire shipped in. Before someone tells me there is a 50 mile limit on the donut, I am well aware of that, but you do what you must when the occasion demands.

mountainman, I agree, probably not going to be able to fix-a-flat standard tires. Fortunately with my 986, I do have a doughnut. Being a 13 year old tire and there doesn't seem to be replacements for them out there, we probably need the fix-a-flat for the spare

Sounds to me like replacing the donut will be more of a costly hassle than replacing the full sized tire.

Fix-o-flat saved me once with an old beater car. I think it was Slime actually.
But I think I'd wait for the free tow from my insurance should the donut have an issue.
Better to see if the tire shop can still fix the donut. Fix-o-flat sounds like a absolute bottom of the list option.
