I do know the tach fuse should be 2A fast acting type.
Not sure for the choke, because I have not seen a fuse on a choke coil. The one on my Ford goes right to the alternator.
If noone gives a certain answer, you can contact the mfgr of the choke or guess.
You can start at 5A (my precision guess) and work up to maybe 7.5, but no more than 10. Being a heating coil, a slow-blow fuse may be required.
If you can measure its resistance, I can help you more.
