I checked on that fuse while i was out on the water. That was actually the first one I checked. It looked ok to me , but to be on safe side and the most wallet friendly, I am going to change it out anyway.

check it with a ohm meter for continuity. i did a service call on an irrigation system today that the guy swore the fuse was good & it looked good, but no continuity. this was a 3 amp, which are a lot smaller that the one on the block, but it still won;t hurt to check.

It should be that fuse or the main cables connections.
If it was the fuse, now what caused it to blow?? Normally only the tach and control box stuff is connected to it.

Get a test light and start checking for power. With an engine of that age, there could be corrsion back behind the fuse holder in the wiring that would also cause all of your problems.

Yes, the fuse provides 12V+ for all of the relays and engine functions for the engine. And as for why it would go, maybe it was just it's time to go.

No Tach was acting fine. No problems at all. As I stated everything had been running fine and up until that moment had been a great day.
