Earlier this year one of my fusible links let its smoke out and no longer works. Luckily I have a vestigial fusible link left over from the original engine wiring that I was able to use, but I would like to replace all the fusible links since the ones left are not looking great. Does anyone know what the current rating of the various fusible links would be? I am thinking about switching to a more modern fuse setup to simplify my rats nest of wiring. The factory fusible links were labeled 2.0L, 0.5G, 1.25B, and 0.3P. The vehicle is a 1991 LJ78, 12 volt system.
 
There is info
here.

Essentially, 2.0L means a cross sectional area of 2 mm squared and the color blue.
So a metric ampacity chart would give you your answers.
 
I made my own from US fusible links bought at Advance Auto.
I just tried to match metric to american wire gauge.
I believe you can find correct metric fusible link wire by the foot or meter or something.
