Dear TVRfriends

after reading a few post about the BIG FUSE and resulting problems, I decided to have a look at mine, if fixed and work correctly.

I was very surprised. that I found TWO 100AMP Fuses fixed together. Was this standard from the factory?

Would you replace the two fuses with a 125AMP Fuse.?

Thanks for your recommendations!

Cheers

Should only be 1 x 100 amp fuse. Replace with 1 x 100 amp. Dont think a 125 would be a problem (or an advantage).

Maybe the previous owner thought it was a handy place to keep a spare wink

Bought the car (4.5LW) with less than 2.000 mls from TVR dealer... so no other owner who had done this...
The fuse box was extra fixed with a cable tie. So you couldn't open the fuse cover.

Now i replaced the two 100Amp fuses with a 125Amp fuse... it works... but now the fuel pump has gone cool

@all
Many thankx for your recommendation

Cheers
