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.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
