XS650 for a while ...

so I'm wired up ( pamco ignition w/ a heavy duty coil ) and bolted down, out for a shakedown run and the fuse I have wired into the ignition fries...( it's a 10 amp, and also has a 15 amp circut breaker) , My question is, this too small a fuse?
I'd rather fry a fuse than the coil or ignition...

I am running a 10amp on each of my circuits. You have something going on if it is blowing the fuse.

I believe pete recommends protecting the pamco with a 7.5A fuse

amps

hammered ( or placed) a 15 amp fuse in there and took it for a resonable spin last night ...
seems to work all right but I'll know more after a long ride guess,
The help I received off line told me to take the fuses out since it allready has a circut breaker but I'd rather not push my luck...
I really wish there was a definitive wrig diagram for these models but I guess with all the variables it's hard to nail it down to one ...
maybe Pete could come up with one to save all the questions folks have for him lol
