Fuse Size?

So, I was working on straightening out a bit of wiring on my 67 over the weekend and had a mishap. The junction block on the right side fender by the battery has the fusible link from the battery to the junction block, then a 12 gage red wire that runs across the core support to join up with the alternator/voltage regulator, etc. and then there is the 18 gage black wire with a fuse that says it goes to the engine harness connection, or at least that's what is says on my wiring diagram.

Anyone know what size the fuse is? Mine got broken by a dropped tool. From the filament it doesn't look too large. It is not listed on my wiring diagram but I am sure I have something I can splice back in there. My father in law had a Radio Shack back in the 1980's and I got a TON of glass fuses and all sorts of fuse hardware.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Fuse Size?

The fuse you are describing is for the amp gauge--there is another one on the left fender also. They both take a 4 amp fuse--it's a short one also

If your talking about the little black rubber fuse holder right by the passenger fender it's a 4 amp fuse.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Fuse Size?

That's it fellas! Thanks and I would be surprised if I didn't have one. I would bet I got at least a hundred of those little five piece boxes of round fuses of all sizes and amperage.

I won't go so far as to say I am anal retentive enough to have them all organized by size/amp in my cabinet, but I might be.
