Bolts are junk. The gasket CAN be re-used, but with the time/effort, I would replace it. The sealing beads are partially crushed, so I wouldn't risk it.

mine did not damage the engine (I shut is off quick) so it didn't damage the motor. It ended up tearing the pump and pump shoe up though.

I can't imagine having only one. If my PX is down, I don't want to miss out on the weekend, so the Spark is the backup. If both are running, I might let a friend ride the spark.
