My old blower kept popping the fuse and although not frozen, I thought it was time to replace it. It moaned and groaned and made a lot of noise. I put in a new blower and fuse, I believe 20 amp. The new blower seems to run great.
Days later my truck would run and then just die unexpectedly. Sometimes it wouldn't start. It wouldn't keep cranking and cranking, it just wouldn't start. Then sometimes it would. I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what is wrong with my truck. Then today I think it hit me. As I was driving down the street with my heater "on", my truck just died again. Turned heater off and started right up and came home. Ran her in the driveway, then turned the heater on and simotaneusly the truck died.
I guess my question is what gives? Does the blower require a ground? Could wrong fuse be doing it? Something shorting out?
My motor/carb is in EXCELLENT condition, turn key start everytime, ran flawless before this.
I am running an HEI distributor.
Any help would be great. Thanks!
