Checking amp draw on a motor
I wanted to check what the amp draw on my stock motor was and according to my memmory (which may be fuzzy at best), I could just hook a multimeter (with a big enough fuse to handle the amp draw; yes Iknow not to put a penny in to the fuse slot... Iknow Ineed a good enough multimeter to handle the high amps and not just replace the fuse with a higher rated one), put it in amp mode and place this between the motor and battery (in series) and then turn the throttle to high. Is this correct or am Inot remembering things correctly from my time in highschool?
thanks
