Hello- Anyone know off the top of your head what the average load is on
the ammeter wire that is connected to the starter solenoid on a '55 2nd
w/out 55 amp generator equipment? I overheated this wire while
cranking/carb tuning, and replaced it with new 14 ga. multi-strand CCP
tinned copper, and put a fuse in line. I blow 15 amp fuses, and expect
that the load is normally higher than that, but would like to run this by
everyone for input.
Real electrical nerds could probably even tell me the current carrying
capacity of that wire type under 12-15v DC conditions at 70 deg F.
Thanks for any ideas...
Don
