I'm trying to put together a list of items that may be useful (beyond) the kit once I get everything ordered and someday flying :)

Things like tools, cleaners, anything you can think of. What's been useful for you?

I'm getting ready to order Van's Odyssey battery charger but I know there has to a lot more stuff I need.

Thanks,

Bob
 
Thanks Tom,

I'm really looking for stuff that gets used or is needed after you're flying and for maintenance.

Carburetor synchronizer
Wheel balancer
Jacks
Spark Plug Caddy
Crank Shaft Locking Pin (should be included with your engine)
Compression Test Rig and Air Compressor
Spark Plug Gap Tool
Spare gasket rings for the mag plug and oil tank drain
Air Filter degreaser and oil

I try to keep a spare fuel pump and voltage regulator around just in case as well as a few oil filters. I made a sounding tube from a piece of poly instrument tubing to sound my tank, and I have a bottle of Decalin with me when I go cross country.
