Re: Fuse holder #6 melting 200 1991

Steve -- about 18 months ago I was having a similar problem with the fuel pump fuse holder on my '81 245. I checked the amp draw of the fuel pump and it was right in spec. I was told by several posters that where the resistance was highest (i.e., the fuse holder) is where the problem lay. So...I went to my local pick-n-pull and snagged two good looking fuse panels. I took the cleaner one and cleaned it some more, pinched the clips tight and replaced my melted one. I haven't had a problem with warm fuses or wires ever since.
