Carry a spare coil, compressor, and oil tank sensor and you should be able to make it home. Injectors are optional but only if you have a Seatow policy.

Marty at Diamond hooked me up with up a spare, good thing is will get on plane down one cylinder.top rpm drops to about 800 less. did some checking and it seems to be the original ones that fail,5 mins to change..5/16 socket and it's done. I hope anyway ...
