need tons of help

ok i can sleep over this stupid problem, well its kinda hard to explain, but ill give it hell. i have a erradic problem of blowing the ignition fuse in the engine compartment (10 Amp). it happens sometimes, not every time so it is very hard to diagnose. but when i get on it hard, mostly in first, second and sometimes in 3rd, the ignition fuse blows instantly and my car shuts off. you can ease into the throttle all the way up the rpms with no problems (so far). i have checked all the wires that i think could be a problem and they appear to be ok. i have a new opti, stock coil, new wires, obd1 conversion. this has been going on for 2 weeks, and i think i fix it, then it pops that fuse again.
i cant figure it out and im not very good with electrical problems so if u guys could give me any help i would greatly appriciate it.

and if i need to give any more info on my problem let me know.

Re: need tons of help

does the msd 6a require you to run a greater amp fuse?

Re: need tons of help

Put a 20 in it.It's small enough to blow if there is a problem and should be large enough to carry the load.
