Not with todays cars/electricial loads. Some fuel pumps will take 20amps to run which is why most new stuff will PWM a pump, plus new cars run electric power steer pumps. Hell even IGN1A coils can chew up to 10A per coil with a LOT of dwell & boost. Radiator fans typically chew 12-15A each and again, today they PWM them.
