Several moves back I made the mistake of not doing a tip run before I
started packing.

I overheated the clutch on my old Mazda and melted the seal on the slave
cylinder.  Leaving me stranded in the middle of a major road with an
8x5 cage trailer full of my junk on the back.

So, now rule #2 (behind Rule #1; never pay full price for anything) is
"if you haven't used it since you moved in, throw it out".
