Typical roadside problems in the 100 have been:
loose connection at distributor
loose carb float bowl cap
fouled plug --oil--

Without going overboard, a limited supply of parts should be carried, 
such as jet o-rings
extra points/ rotor, a piece of wire and tape, and a small number of 
tools (7/16, 1/2, 9/16 size sockets and wrenches, adustable wrench,
screwdriver regular & phillips, plug socket, extensions, visegrip)
I do have an extra head set (gaskets), after all it is a Healey.
tools to take off the crank nut--NO
extra distributor-NO
extra generator-NO -(even though it looks like a weak link, too heavy)
extra water pump-NO (you'll just have to call for delivery at your next 
destination)
