You have your BOB, your wife has her BOB and the children each have their own bug out bag so what is left? Let's take a moment and consider a BOB for your bug out vehicle.
When you have to evacuate your home in preparation of an upcoming disaster or emergency your most prized possession becomes your vehicle or BOV. Without it you go no where and will eventually be directly in the path of whatever emergency condition you are attempting to escape from. With this thought in mind it becomes very important that you have specific items included in your vehicle to ensure that you safely escape your current predicament.
To start out with let's place one or two rolls of duct tape in your vehicles BOB. This is one of my wife's most prized items. She can run rings around any man I know when it comes to uses for duct tape. Duct tape is not just for use around the home, it serves many purposes that most people have totally forgotten. It can hold things together, mend your cars upholstery, act as a temporary hose fix for your car, and more. Never underestimate the value of your duct tape.
Along with your duct tape you should maintain a roll or two of common bailing wire. Bailing wire will hold just about anything together which may be too hot for your tape to hold. When you purchase a roll make sure to obtain the steel variety as the aluminum wire has a tendency to breaks much too easily.
Everyone realizes the value of maintaining a small toolbox of various selected tools in the trunk of your car. One of the most useful of these tools should be a good pair of vise-Grips. This tool is equally proficient as a wrench, an occasional hammer, used in place of a pair of pliers, and other uses. With its gripping action the vise grip can serve as an emergency faucet handle for either indoor or outdoor use. When you encounter one of those difficult and hard to remove screws that may possibly be damaged beyond repair the vice grip is your desired tool to complete the repair.
A hammer should also be included in your tool kit. It is not just for placing nails in your walls at home. You can use the hammer to secure corroded battery terminal or to pop out an unexpected dent in your BOV.
A VOM or Volt Ohm Meter will work wonders in determining what the problem is when you experience electrical troubles with your car. It can readily find short circuits, diagnose charging system dilemmas, or check a battery to determine its electrical abilities.
An occasional plastic zip tie could come in useful to secure various items in your car or under the engine compartment. I have heard of people using them to secure a radiator hose in place until they could obtain professional help in replacing it. Several packages will not take up that much space in your BOV and may prove useful.
A good selection of screwdrivers is always a great choose in tools for your car. Many people tend to ignore the extra long or extra heavy duty screwdrivers; however they are extremely useful for prying, lifting, chiseling, breaking or splitting items when required. It may not be the proper tool to use in many situations but it works quite well.
A breaker bar and socket set can be of immense use during an emergency crisis. Be sure to include a set of deep sockets ranging from about 12 to 21 mm. A 25 inch breaker bar will do well towards loosening the various hard to break loose bolts found under your hood. Rusted bolts or lug nuts will no longer present a problem to you with a good quality breaker bar.
I always carry an air compressor in my BOV that plugs into the cigarette lighter socket. This is an excellent item to inflate that slow leaking tire in order to get to a repair station.
In addition, I have included a set of jumper cables, a tube of RTV and miscellaneous tools which I find that I may need from time to time. With a good investment in BOV tools you can rest assured that you will safely get your family evacuated in time.

Electrical Repairs
Easy to Learn Steps Toward Considerable Savings In Home Electrical Repairs:
Lesson two: tool kit
The greatest fear a new “Mr. Fix-it” often faces is considering the challenge of an electrical project. The primary hurdle is the fear of being shocked. It is this unnecessary fear which often times prompts a call to a costly service repairman. A healthy respect for electricity cannot be over emphasized however; working on electrical components is undoubtedly one of the safest, easiest and certainly the cleanest undertaking for the home owner
The truth of the matter is: It is absolutely impossible to receive an electrical shock if there is no current passing through, or stored in, the device or appliance. Pull the plug, remove the fuse or trip the breaker. It is as simple as that yet literally hundreds of home owners meet with an untimely demise every year due to electrical shock. Disconnecting the source is a very simple, common sense rule to avoid such tragedies.
There really is nothing difficult in any phase of electrical work. Once you have a fundamental understanding of electricity the odds are you may have a more difficult time assembling a child’s toy at Christmas than replacing a light switch, receptacle or ceiling fan.
Now then, most electrical panels are located either in a utility room, garage or basement. Ironically these are the very rooms which you are most likely to find either a wet or damp floor. Go figure! Institute a few Precautionary and Safety measures: they are a must.
Beneath the electrical panel in my home I have an 18 inch by 24 inch rubber matt. Secondly, stored in a clear plastic envelope I have a sign which reads: “Stop. Work In Progress Do Not Open”. I tape this sign to the outside of the panel’s door whenever I am doing electrical work in the house. If I need to flip a breaker to the “off” position, I place a small piece of Red Tape across the breaker.
Furthermore, in an occupied home communication is extremely important. It is not uncommon for a circuit to supply electricity to more than one room. Let everyone in the house know you are working on the electrical system. Do not feel that you are going a bit overboard. The way I see it; should someone stumble upon me lying on the floor, with my hair really, really curly, it will be extremely difficult for them to convince me that: “It waaas an ac-ci-dent” if they try to explain why they turned the breaker back to the “on” position.
Lastly, make certain you have allocated enough time to finish the project. Leaving an open, unattended circuit for any unnecessary length of time is an invitation for disaster. Considering the speed of electricity is in the neighborhood of 20,000 miles per second, unless you are extremely gifted with exceptionally fast reflexes, you will have very little chance to avoid an electrical shock should you accidentally grab or brush against a live wire.
Modern civilization has brought at least a hundred different machines, devices and appliances into our home. Any one of them has been known to “pass their electrons on to the Great Voltage Meter” in the sky at the most inopportune time.
You need not wait for a repairman.
With an inexpensive tool kit you can manage just about any electrical home repair project. Your electrical portion of this toolkit should consist of at least the following:
- One pair of needle nose pliers
- One pair of lineman’s pliers
- One large and one small spade screwdriver
- One #2 and one #1 Phillips screwdriver
- A wire stripper capable of stripping 10, 12 and 14 gauge wire
- A voltage tester, a continuity tester, and jumper wires
- Electrical tape and wire caps for 10, 12 and 14 gauge wire
- An electrical soldering iron and electrical wire solder.
I enjoy going to yard sales and flea markets for tools. Shopping this way a basic electrical kit will cost around 25 or 30 dollars to put together and it can literally save you hundreds of dollars the first time you use it.
While this is a good starter kit, it goes without saying the more extensive your tool kit the more work you can do and so you have a greater potential for saving exceptional amounts of money.
If your budget allows, here are a few additional items I consider to add safety and potential to your kit.
Circuit Breaker Finder is the perfect tool for tracing live wiring and outlets! New – about $80.00
A Non-Contact Voltage Detector is great for detecting energized wires and terminals without touching them. This device is just generally good to have around but also is great for the novice to determine where the “feed” is coming from. New - about $21.00.
A Circuit Analyzer. It plugs directly into the socket just like any other plug. Yellow and red indicators instantly signal which wire is defective. The pattern can be easily decoded with a chart located on the top of the unit. Most have built in GFCI testers. New - about $8.00
This recession is real and we haven’t seen the bottom yet. If you buy your tools only as you need them your budget should stay intact. Flea markets, yard sales and learning to do some very easy repairs around the home are great providers during any economic situation.

12 volt supply problem 1987 chevrolet r30 454 tbi?
I drove my tow rig home from work yesterday, ran fine all day long, parked it and everything died, no radio, lights starter, not even the cigarette lighter. Traced wires all day today, checked all the fusible links, but for some there was no 12 volts getting to the fuse box. Decided to try jumping from the battery to the pair of terminals on the firewall where several apparently normally hot wires come together. Truck cranked and ran normally, disconnected the jumper and the dang thing still works normally even without the jumper now. While I am glad the truck is working, it is not exactly confidence inspiring.
I from how it looks (may be mistaken) all the trucks 12 volt power goes through the starter solenoid (both wires from the batt lead to the starter, then some wires go from a second terminal on the Solenoid back to the wiring harness. Could it be an internal fault in the solenoid that by starting the truck jarred it into working am I just completely off base.
i ran into EXACTLY the same problem on an 86. i kept forkin' around and finally went direct to the starter and bingo it started. to this day it is still working and never happened again. i have absolutely no idea why. by the way--that was almost 2 years ago.
Why Chamberlain's 100 Points Was More Impressive Than Kobe's 81 Points.
100 points is more than 81 points by default, everyone who knows mathematics knows that. However, I've seen a lot of fans, mostly casual basketball fans who don't know much about the history of basketball, quickly downplay Wilt's 100 points and up play Kobe's 81 points. Well, they're wrong and here's why.... Let's debunk all of the myths that the casual fans often say, shall we? "There was ...
