I'm interested in Tracy's thoughts on this too. He said the high current is only during startup, but if my fuse was accurate, then I drew > 15A at 5000 ft in cruise with 2 coils.
I think I'll be OK at 20A and 16G wire, but ....

John,

You mentioned before that you determined your in-flight power problem to be the blown fuse.  You also said that the power came back when you got back on the ground.  I don't see how both can be true???    BTW, any more gummy goo on your prop ?

Cheers,

Rusty (fuse/breaker...ford/chevy)
