[alfa] Interesting Electrical Issue

[Benjamin Kaupp <bkaupp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Okay, here's a fun one.

My '78 Spider is having electrical problems (surprise surprise). The #6 
fuse is blowing every time I rev above 5500 for very long or take a 
sharp left turn (#6 = coil, gauges, alternator warning light, and... 
?). I have checked all connections and grounds and they are secure, so 
now I fear that I must just get down and dirty and trace everything to 
find the short, unless anybody has any suggestions/btdt/places to 
start. What a great new impression I'll make on the new neighbors, 
showing up and immediately putting my car up on jackstands.

oh - recent additions:
Crane electric ignition (very suspect, this'll be my first check)
Amplifier (already counted this out. checked everything it touched)
new water pump/thermostat/cylinder head gasket

TIA

'78 Spider (at least it stopped overheating)
