73 Canyonlands.... When I bought Oliver, the high speed fan fuse holder was melted, I replaced it with a 30 Amp fuse-holder and 20A fuse, subsequently, that fuse cooked and began melting the holder...I just replaced again and put in a 25 amp fuse, my DC Ammeter clamped on reads 24.5 A, anyone know what size fuse this should be? Is 24A normal?
Thanks in advance!

Fuse holders melt because they are not making good contact on the fuse.
