It still blew fuse after I removed gauge wiring as well. I will reconnect gauge wires tomorrow and see if it does it again. I'll keep you posted and thank you
So now I'm a little baffled. I disconnected the coil and turned over with no blown fuse. I reconnected the coil and it fired up and ran fine. So not sure if connections were the issue. I bought and replaced the coil and runs fine. Any ideas why that would happen?
I greatly appreciate your input. Another question for thought. A friend had similar issue and it was his coil. Could that be the culprit? I don't own a multimeter but will be going to buy one today. Again thank you for the response.
I have a 1988 regal 233. Lately when I go to start boat it immediately blows ignition fuse. I put in a new fuel gauge just before this started happening. Since I've completely removed it and still same problem. I even went as far as removing all instruments from ignition and still same problem...
