    Default Keep Blowing Fusible Link?

    Okay so I put in an added fuse box in my ke70 16v 4age and ran the 3 fusible links to their own fuses and it keeps blowing the fuse for the Yellow wire from the fusible link, just curious what the yellow one if for and how many amps should the fuse be that runs it. It blows when I give the car a decent rev and then will run like absolute shit then I turn it off then it will have no power at all? Any opinions/ideas are welcome, thanks.

    Chuck a 80 amp fuse in it.

    The fuse only really protects the alternator against reverse polarity anyway.

    Most likely the alternator stops charging and it would run like shit. The fuel pump will be running at 12.x volts instead of 14.6 and the injectors / ignitor too.
