I separated the fuse block from the bulkhead wiring and found quite a bit of gunk. Attempted to spray it down with carb cleaner, but it didn't anything to dissolve it. Do you of anything that could dissolve that gunk?

Also, I think I did find a bad fusible link. Does it have a thick one inch long cylinder around the wire?[IMG][IMG]IMG_20180120_155126657[/IMG][/IMG]

I've attached a couple of images of the fuse block to show you what I was referring to. I'm not sure if you'll get them because I'm not sure if I did it right.
