A/C high blower fuse

I have blown the a/c high blower fuse in my '73 and was wondering what I need to replace it with. The wiring diagram I have for my '73 is without air and the wiring diagrams i've seen with air are for a '72 and '75. These diagrams show the fuse to be a 30 amp but what blew in mine was a 20 amp. I don't want to burn anything up so I want to make sure I put the right fuse back in any help would be great.

Thanks

Inspect the fuse holder and make sure its clean and the wire is in good shape.
That fuse is prone to running hot if its not making a good connection.

Thanks for the info on the fuse. I have seen the '74 diagram I just wanted to make sure it was the same for a '73. The fuse holder and wire look to be in good condition, but I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks again, Tim

Fuse is on the drivers side fender area near the firewall. It may be tucked up under the fender. It is in a white/off white plastic holder as I recall.
