Subject:      keeps blowin' fuses
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Got a 10 mile, 1500+ foot climb every time I go to Wally World, or
wherever, the 1.9 diesel is down to 30mph in 3rd for about 4 miles of
it. I put in a separate toggle switch so I could start the high speed
radiator fan  while I'm still on the flat to keep it from overheating.
This works well, except as soon as I shut the fan off the 16amp fuse pops !
I guess I could put the hot wire on the lower speed of the radiator fan,
but that isn't as efficient and the engine still heats up a little.
A bigger fuse? Anyone got a fix?
