I have been doing some rearranging of the wiring and circuit protection in my 6A.



I found my two fuel guages ( Vans IE-VFL-15) wired directly to the starter power input on the key switch (I must have been lazy that day).  The documentation calls for 18AWG wiring for this circuit - but does not specify circuit protection sizing.  I am thinking a 3 amp fuse should allow sufficient current and provide protection for the wiring.



Thoughts please!

Ralph,



I used a 2 amp CB for the fuel gauges and I have had no problems.
