I've gone the same route - with just a bit more security. Besides the
compressor, I also carry a bottle of "Slime" (a thick liquid that will plug a
leaking tire, at least temporarily). Another thought. If your Healey is
still neg. earth, your mini-compressor may not work. Would be a good idea to
install clips on the compressor lead instead of the cigarette lighter plug.

BTW - "Wifey" sure likes the additional luggage space.

Hi
Well, FWIW, I recently bought a new car. It doesn't have any spare wheel
at all. Instead it has a little compressor. I have adopted the same
principle on the Healey, bought a little compressor and using the extra
space for luggage instead. Haven't needed any spare wheel for the four
seasons I've used the 3000. And not for the Sprite either, for the
eleven years I've had it.
