Perhaps off topic, but how can one relay feed multiple things?
When it is triggered it sends current to the ONE thing it feeds, no?
So maybe General Relay in the diagram is shortcut for "the relevant relays-- you know which ones so I won't waste ink showing them all"

Bob,
On the diagram that I have in front of me there is a relay #10 called
eneral relay. The coil is powered by the ignition switch and the power is
aken from the ammeter and routed to a handful fuses, among them the one
eeding the radiator fans. I conclude that the radiator fans are not loading
he ignition switch. Other items fed by this relay are window motors, heater
an and AC clutch and condenser fan.

en,
he radiator fan power through the original wiring goes through the ignition
witch. Thus if you have a high radiator fan load, you could melt the
gnition switch. The relay diverts radiator fan power so it comes directly
rom the fuse box or where ever you have it hooked up to. The ignition
witich circuit is used to activate the relay coil. So I would recommend the
od.

 I noticed that one of the blade fuse upgrades (maybe all of them) includes
an relays.  Is there a reason (age?) to not use the original relays?
