Having my buddy look at the 81 300SD I bought and snooping around to see if the no start is something obvious like the relay fuse. He describes the fuse itself as a wire but say it looks like an OEM setup. I have only seen the "wire" replacment fuses as in half assed shade tree mechanic wire fuse, all the others have all been the flat metal fuses.

If in fact it is a piece of wire, can it carry to much current? and what are the ramifications to the g-plugs or other components in that loop if they are getting to much juice?

Thoughts?

Thank you mods!
