Good article. Read it and believe it. NEVER substitute your Lucas fuses with an American Buss fuse. You will be asking for trouble.

Buy'em by the dozen, cheap enough. I usually go with TRF but there are other vendors.

This does come frequently -- it sure confused me when I got my first LBC!

I would like to point out (as a side note) that the article on my site was written by Randall Young (from the Triumphs mailing list), and published on my site with his permission. I found it to be the clearest writing I had found at that time that explained the issues.
