I lost power to the engine and guages today and fiqure it is a fusible link because I still have lights and interior lights.
Where is that engine/ignition fusible link.......by the starter?
Thanks much!!!!!

Is that one up top connected to the junction block near the middle of the firewall?
If so which side.....driver or passenger side of the junction?
Also, if the top one goes out, does it kill the engine/ign. circuit or the body circuit?
Thanks.
