    Casco fuse for �66 cigarette lighter

    Some years ago, I purchased a Casco fuse, model # L2C, planning to use it on the cigarette lighter on my ‘66. The fuse has internal and external threads to connect to the lighter housing and the power connector.

    But now I notice the lighter housing has a bullet-shaped connector for the power, with no threads.

    I think I must have purchased the wrong Casco fuse element, and instead I need one that has push-on connections. Is there a different model of Casco fuse that accepts push-on connections?

    Or will the threaded ends of the Casco L3 C slip over or into the housing and power connector push-on terminals tightly enough for a good electrical connection?

    Thanks,

    Gary

                          Rich,

                          Then I screwed the female end of the Casco fuse onto the male threads at the end of the lighter housing:

                          Thanks Rich. I never would have seen the simple solution in my own.

                          Gary
