Throw in an on error clause.  Then maybe it will tell you what the  
problem is.


tell application "Finder"
     try
         eject disk "spare"
     on error errText
         display alert errText
     end try
end tell

If it says "finder can't get disk 'spare'", try adding a short delay   
before the eject disk clause. "delay n" will pause for n seconds.
