I think I have found the short responsible for blowing my middle fuse out.
There was a partial bare wire under the bonnet and another bare wire under
the drivers seat. I taped up both wires and took it for a drive to the gas
station. No problems there and back. Then I ran it up and down my street with
the lights on and brights going for about a half hour. Still no problems. The
fuse is holding up good. I am still having a problem with the fuel gage. I
will be pulling the sending unit tomorrow to see if that is the problem.
Other than that I just need to put two good tires on the front and it will be
ready for where ever I may take it. Judas will be seeing alot of road travel
now so I am also doing an oil change tomorrow as well. Thanks to everyone
that responded to my questions regarding this matter. Me and Judas are alot
happier now. :-)
