Q: tbone wrote hell my first pc xt clone had a scsi drive. sure it did. yep all 20mbs of it. i must say miles you really are too funny. do you really believe this complete crap ibm has been in business for a long time and was a major computer manufacturer long before the pc. totally different markets. ibm went into a market they had no experience in and did so with the same mentality that worked for their other markets...and failed. i am well aware of their mca bus. the problem is that the clone manufacturers stole reverse engineered ibms bios and then changed it enough to make it not a copy and used it to steal ibms system board much faster than ibm expected. huh you already stated earlier that ibm intended their pc to be open platform. now youre saying someone stole it faster than ibm wanted them too thats an odd marketing plan...plan for others to steal it but only after a set amount of time. lol one year is a huge amount of time in the pc world even back then. not for a totally new product it sure isnt. being one of the first and being the first are not the same thing. lol...geez the first 3 clones out were within a couple months of each other. whatever tom! columbia was first but they were a puny company with low sales so was 2nd out eagle. compaq was the 3rd and sold nationwide rather well. now it is you that has become misleading. graphics adapters and sound cards were only jewelry on the pig at the time and ibm created the tech for the pig. ibm created their graphics card and clone makers created their own shortly after...with far more capabilities. ibm then stopped their own production of graphics cards and bought herculese technology. but thats about all they had and ibm still looks as strong as ever. oh really now ibms pc sales stalled and they sold their line completely years ago. .

what kind of tester do you recommend any digital multimeter would be fine. if youre going to buy one you dont have to spend a lot of money but make sure you get one that takes normal aa aaa 9v batteries and not some hard-to-find specialty battery. the one i normally use on my vehicles cost me less than $20 iirc. .

any way i can properly test this on my own or test the current at the fuse well not much point in testing the current at the fuse... its already telling you its 30a. you can do a quick test on the injectors... disconnect the electrical connector carefully... those little locking tabs tend to get brittle over time and can break easily from each injector and measure the resistance across the injector terminals. the fsm says you should measure 12 ohms +/- 1.2 ohms 10.8 to 13.2. do this when the engine is cold. .

max dodge wrote putting in a larger fuse will may mask the problem but allow for the overloading of the wires in your wiring harness. that leads to just as hard a breakdown only the fix is much more complicated. and may involve a fire extinguisher. -- max ya when i was in the navy we called that the smoke test. jumper the fuse and see what smokes! jam .

problem again. well they put in a 30 and within thirty minuttes of driving it blew again. i swapped a 40 in there pulled from the tow lights fuse and got back home. going to go buy some spare fuses but was wondering if anyone had a clue why it would do that and what issues i might run into if i put a bigger fuse in. fuses blow for a reason. that particular fuse powers the asd relay which in turn powers the fuel injectors im assuming a gasoline engine here and ignition coil. check the wiring harness for any damage between the power distribution center and these components. its possible one of the fuel injector solenoids is drawing too much current and causing your problem. putting in a larger fuse will may mask the problem but allow for the overloading of the wires in your wiring harness. that leads to just as hard a breakdown only the fix is much more complicated. .
