So after about 3 weeks of not opening the hood, I did earlier this week. I noticed the fuse for the aux port activation has been blown, and I haven't been opening my six ports in who knows how long. I replaced with a new 30amp fuse and took it for a drive. All that power I didn't know I had was back and alive. A day later I thought I'd check again, and its blown again. Replaced again, day later, blown. I'm assuming the pump is pulling a shitload of amps when its running for more than 10seconds or so (I was doing some uphill climbs at around 5500rpm accelerating-- its either that or drop out of the powerband and have to slip the clutch to get it up the hill, lol).

Any idea what might be causing it? There is pressure reief valve installed. I don't know what psi it runs though. Earlier this year I was running the epump on the same settup with a 15amp fuse, never blowing it. Now its blowing 30s. I almost bought a 40amp fuse yesturday to fix it, what do you think?

Guess this one might end up being a tuffey

Found the problem. The spade connector has gotten loose on the bottom of the pump due to vibrations. It would come off the terminal, and spark on a ground/body.

Easy fix.

Thanks
