I am revising my post after some addition research in to the issue and to make my question(s) more clear.
Problem:
If I leave my LC just on accessory (not running) for longer than five minutes, a couple of 25A fuses that the PO placed before (on the battery side) of the fusible link (labeled "AM1 MAIN 1.25B 2.0 L) (see pic), will blow rendering the car unable to start. It will turn over but not start. The dash will have all sorts of lights on: AT/Oil/Alternator.
The headlights won't turn on either. I guess the PO put the fuses there to protect the fusible link (FL) bc he got tired of replacing it after it blew.
After replacing both the 25A fuses, the car will start right up. It will idle very roughly for 1/2 hour, sometimes it will die, but after a few restarts, the engine idles well again. There isn't any aftermarket electrical gear on the LC- just some fogs up front, and a crappy alpine stereo.
What do you think cause the FL to blow when the LC is just on accessory? Is something drawing too much power?
Thank you in advance for any ideas.
--disregard that last pic. cant delete it.
