I've just got all the important stuff hooked back up after swapping engines. Lots of hard work and I've been stopped by a fuse. The cover disappeared from the bank of 4 fuses off the positive terminal a while back. The clear cover for one of the fuses also fell off. I went to try and pull the fuse (think it's the MPI) to prime the engine and the thing split in two. The colored portion and the thin part of the fuse came out. Two metal tabs and a hunk of black plastic stayed in. I have two questions:

1. Does anyone have any advice for getting this fuse out? I've tried with am pliers so far.

2. Does anyone have a picture of the fuse cover or can someone list the order/color of the fuses in this location?

I should have a cover in one of my 4 wire harness I have, but the fuses are bolted in so you need to use a 10mm socket or wrench and unbolt the fuse on both sides. You can buy new ones at a parts store but you might have to mod the prongs a little.

Really? I've always just pulled them out with a pliers. I never saw any bolts. I'll look again.
