Fuse box/Electrical Question
Now that I have an Autometer Tach and Temp Gauge, I was wondering if it would be okay to connect two wires into one fuse box slot?
There is a fuse box slot that turns on with the parking lights... I have the tach "lighting wire" connected there. Can I connect the temp lighting wire in the same slot? Am I making sense? lol

it should be ok but i think that fuse is only rated @ 5 amps right? I would find a different light fuse & run a fuse jumper for one of them...corn

That is what I did on mine. I have the tach light and two other gauges on that and never have had a problem with blowing the fuse. Those little bulbs don't draw much current so it should be ok. The worst that could happen is the fuse could blow. But don't even think about upping the fuse size otherwise this can happen!
