I have been using my fuse block's "IGN" terminal for the last 6 months to power my Carter 100 gph electric fuel pump that draws 4-1/2 amps. Well, two days ago my fuel pump suddenly lost it's power and left me sitting at an intersection with a dead engine.
After getting my engine restarted and having it die about 6-7 more times I finally made my way to an area where I could check it out. My IGN terminal was dead and I suspect that terminal isn't capable of delivering that many amps.
I ended up connecting my fuel pump to the 30-amp circuit breaker on my firewall and I doubt I'll have any more trouble.
