Location pics in an 85 & 89 (between the starter relay and alternator)"...the first two pics are of an 89 5.0. because of the loom i wasnt able to trace the wires...The second pic is at the starter relay to show you a fusible link wire (the green wire in my fingers you can see at the eyelet there is a black plastic block). the third pic is of my 85. i think that big block is another style fusible link ford used on older stuff (but im not sure)..."

Locations in 87-88 F-series w/ 5.0, 5.8 or 7.5 & 87-88 Bronco w/ 5.0 or 5.8; "... the power feed for the ECM and ignition comes through four separate fusible links. The power for the ECM and the EEC power relay comes from fusible link N which has a YELLOW wire coming from the link into the EEC power relay. In 1987 and 1988 only, there is a second fusible link (Z)on the other side of the EEC power relay that extends to the ECM and many of the solenoids under the hood. The link comes out from the EEC power relay with a RED wire. Fusible link D has a WHITE/LIGHT BLUE wire that runs to the ignition coil. Fusible link M has a YELLOW wire that runs to the fuel pump relay. Other model years and engines are different and this information may not be accurate for your truck..."

Repair & Color/ Gauge sizes; "... Fusible link wire is normal wire with special insulation designed to contain the heat, spark, and melted metal when the wire burns from excessive current draw. Fusible link wire is not rated in Amperes since its characteristics are less-obvious, but it is typically 4 gauges (AWG) smaller (higher number) than the circuit it protects. Although many vehicles now use MEGA or MAXI fuses where older vehicles used fusible link wire, replacing older fusible links with fuses is not recommended unless the rest of the wiring is upgraded to match the newer arrangement. Never replace a fuse with fusible link wire. In an emergency, smaller-gauge wire may be temporarily substituted for fusible link wire until an appropriate repair can be made; Orange - 22ga. - 0.35mm; Gray - 20ga. - 0.5mm;
Blue - - - 18ga. - 0.8mm; Black - 16ga. - 1.0mm;
Gray - 14ga. - 2.0mm; Blue - 12ga. - 3.0mm;
Orange - 10ga. - 5.0mm; Black - 8ga. - 8.0mm..."
