Engine starts then blows the 10 amp ignition fuse. If I put a 20 amp fuse in it runs okay. The car has been sitting for 2 years.

Hello, I wouldn't use a higher rated fuse. The circuits that fuse serves, cam sensor--crank sensor--ignition coils--auto tranny. I'd check the coils, plugs, wires, first.
