Hey Apple were did you fine the link or what did do wrong. About the fuse box thats why I have a battery cut off switch to keep my battery from draining. One of many things that I have plan to do.

"Ancient Chinee secret"!!
There was just too much "stuff" in the link. Weed out the garbage, and it's there. The actual address is:

http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i302/thizzcity44/Dadcorvette004-1.jpg

Looks like "Bubba" tried to install some stereo equipment(or other add-ons), and was having problems with the fuses blowing...there's a shock. So..."lets just git arid o them thar fuses, and weld a wire tuh one o these here solid metal stick thangs, and stick that in thar. Yee Haw!"

Is that just one wire tied to both of those "fuses", or are there two wires there?Adams' Apple2007-04-24 05:03:27

Depending on what those wires are for, they should be connected to the bulkhead in the engine compartment and installing a fuseable link would be a good added precautiono.  A direct link like that is a fire waiting to happen.
