A good friend who may be the oldest member here (and who ought to be posting except he can never remember his password) seems to have blown the Main fusible link in his '90L after trying to jump is with cables reversed. Where does one buy new fusible links for Festivas?

Try this thread. Many people, myself included, have replaced the fusible links with long legged fuses. Check it out! Easy repair

It is also possible to use what is called a "Self-Resetting Breaker", a thing commonly found in RV's.
They open when the current draw through them exceeds the rating they are set for, when they cool down they re-set - allowing current to flow again.
They WILL protect your wires, but don't have to be replaced. Or at least not often.
However - if you have one of them opening a lot, there is obviously a problem that needs correcting.
