The glow plug relay fuse blew, so I replace it with an 80 amp blade type fuse I ran out of the relay cover with some 6 Gage THHN conductor. I don't want to be stuck having to get a MB DIN fuse from a dealer. Now I can get a replacement from any auto parts store. I'll post a picture of that shortly.

Oh, it passed inspection today. I'm thinking now of changing it from an antique tag pleasure use to a daily driver.
NAPA sells that 80 AMP strip fuse for 50 cents, and they are pretty cheap from online vendors like this site too, My car does not have it but has the 30 A for the blower, I have taped a new spare fuse in my cars centre console cubby hole box.
