My '75 has recently developed the habit of blowing fuse #8 every time I go out for a drive. This fuse (8Amp) is for the fresh air fan/ horn/ wipers/ cigaret lighter and also seems to provide power to the guages, tach and clock. This problem now seems to happen when I'm starting the car (car runs fine - just no guages) but not always. Going to a 16Amp fuse seems to fix the issue but to me that's not a good solution (I don't want t have a Car-B-Que). I have the factory manuals and I'm reviewing them but I thought I'd check to see if any of you have had this specific problem or have ideas where to focus my search. Thanks in advance!
