I've just replaced my coil pack and fired up initially, all appears working but after a 20 min test drive, fuse #48 blows. I thought clutch was incorrectly gapped (too close), so put in a shim to give a 0.4mm gap but fuse has gone again.

I note my replacement didn't have this thermal fuse, is it a requirement? would it blow the circuit? thx

it appears I had frayed wiring from coil which was grounding on compressor causing the short...
