 |
|
Hi all
Can anyone confirm what rating fuse should be used for the fuel pump circuit. The handbook says 16A while my Haynes manual says 25A. I have been blowing a few of the 16A ones and was wondering whether this is because I should be using a 25A or if there is a more serious issue with the circuit.
Happy Easter,
Aussie931

If you have only one pump, the external pump, then a 16A fuse is enough.
-But I'm pretty sure you'll have both the internal tank pump + external pump. You need the 25A for that. If you have a couple of wires running to the outlet of the fuel tank, then you have both internal and external pumps.

Thanks Smoothie. I have both the internal & external pumps so I will change over to a 25 A fuse.
