I consider the fuse modification a must have on any Model A. It is also a good idea to remove the fuse from the holder and stand it on its head at either end of the holder when finished driving for the day. This will remove power from all the circuits in the car except power to the starter, which is not normally a problem area.

Should there be a partial short circuit somewhere where the current draw is less than the value of the fuse, say it is drawing 20 amps and the fuse is a 30 amp. It will sit there and smolder long enough to light a fire. Removing the fuse will prevent that.
