Been to Radio Shack and Ace, looked on a bunch of online Chevy Parts stores and the only thing they sell are blade style. I am either finding fuses that are just too long or just too short, why am I having a hard time with this, what gives? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,852 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,852 | Here's a chart that lists fuses by dimensions. You probably need the SFE type fuses which vary in length depending on amperage capacity. I'd suggest upgrading to the plug-in type self-resetting circuit breakers instead of fuses if you can find some that fit your fuse block. http://www1.cooperbussmann.com/6/GlassTubeFuses.htmlJerry

That chart is a big help, and guess I'll buy bulk on ebay. | | |
