I wanted a known good spare. The relay I pulled was the original with the 1986 date stamp, but after being stuck on I-95, better to be safe than sorry.
I pulled my DME relay and it, too, was the original ('89) relay. Of course, I changed it out just due to age (alone),...car was completely asymptomatic....

Damned right "safe than sorry" !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have another brand new one in the glovebox, keeping the original in the bonnet stock.

Best,
