The Stovebolt Site Forums Project Journals Project Journals 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Project

5/16/19: In the interest of safety, after reading several post on Stovebolt Forums, I decided to install a fusible link wire in the 10 ga. wire that goes from the starter hot lead on the solenoid starter switch to the negative side of the ammeter. I bought a 14 ga fusible link wire that had a 3/8” ring terminal already installed. That left one “Western Union Splice” as suggested by a fellow “bolter”, to make the connection. I practiced first on some scrap 10 ga and the end of the fusible link wire that was too long. I didn’t get anywhere near 10 wraps on each side as suggested but I do believe it is a sound connection.
