For a 68 Corvette, are the small 1/2 inch long 5 amp fuses still available>
I have a couple of 2 amp but no 5 amp and don't know if they can still be purchased or if everything is the blade type now whihc obviously will not work in a 68.
What vendor might have these very short fuses?
Thank you
Kurt
Thank you Bob.
I thought the old style glass fuses were hard to find now in the irregular sizes
I will go to an Auto Parts store tomorrow and pick up a few just to have them on hand.
Kurt
Mike,
Did Radio Shack have those fuses?
I have a Radio Shack one mile from my home and I can go there tomorrow. To late to go tonight, they are closed.
Thanks,
Kurt
They are available Kurt. May be a little hard to find as everyone has gone to the ATC/ATO fuses. If you cannot find them locally, let me know and I will mail you a couple.
Those short fuses in 1968 & up to 76 also had a dot of tan or beige paint on the outside of the glass part of the fuse. I used to pull them out of late 60s and early 70s GM junk cars at the bone yard. If the one you have does not have the dot, just take a small model paint brush, cut the bristles to a point and put a dot about 1/16" diameter in the center of the glass with a tan or beige enamel paint.
