Volks,
Thanks to all who offered suggestions of my A/C out: Based upon Listee
input here is my solution:
1) Purchased: a) 50 amp blade or spade style fuse b) 10 guage wire c) 10
guage spade connectors that matched the spade size of the 50 amp fuse d)
10 guage ring connector to fit terminal where wafer fuse attached. All
this purchased at Autozone (FLAPS).
2) Cleaned all wires and connectors with Dremel wire wheel, applied
dielectric grease to all surfaces.
3) Made up new fuse rig w/crimp on connectors mentioned above, ring
connectors to terminals where old "wafer" style fuse went, spade ends to
50 amp "maxi" fuse from FLAPS.

Hooked all up and A/C is again throwing ice cubes, and wires are cool to
touch. Now if a fuse goes again, I can pick one up at any FLAPS.

One problem however. Temp dropping down near freezing tonight! (read
need heater not A/C!). These little cold snaps never last long down here
on Texas Gulf Coast however. We'll be cutting grass again next week I'm
sure.
