main fuse

I have a 73 duster there is a main fuse connection at the fire wall above the brake reservoir with a 25 fuse. It keeps bowing at different times when I start any ideas what would cause this and where to start to fix thanks
I agree with Mike above. It should be a fusible link. Trace the wire, it should be a battery feed. Other common usual areas to check are the bulkhead connector at the firewall for corrosion or burnt wires. If you have an ammeter connected it is another cause of problems. You should find the wiring diagram for your car to trace and test.
