I installed new heads couple of days ago and car was running great,now I am blowing fuel pump fuses!As soon as i put it in and turn the ignition on it blows.I have an adjustble fuel pump regulator, could i have the pressure set too low or high causing this problem?Fuel pump sounded fine I ran a jumper wire across the fuse hole and worked and fired up,but I was afraid to drive it like this.Please help!

holy shi*, that sucks. I have no clue, but i hope everything gets better. i think a ground has come off though.

I wish I could help but, I have experienced sort of the same thing. One day as I made a U-turn the engine died. After researching I found the 20a fuse in the engine compartment blown. I replaced it only to have it blow a day later. It now hasnt done it for a month or so. I went so far as pulling the pump from the tank and checked it on the bench but couldnt find a problem. I now carry an extra fuse around "just in case". Now I looked in my manual and cant find a fuel pump fuse under the dash. So im not sure what fuse you are blowing?

I had the same problem with my 95. First time it did it I thought it was the fuel pump, put a new fuel pump in, it work good for about 6 weeks. Then the fuse started to blow again. I work at a Ford Dealer so I had one of my tech look at it. He found that the CCRM was bad it runs a couple things not sure what else. It is the module by the cooling fan it’s on the same pillar that holds the over flow tank. The part # is F6SZ12B577AA cost was about $85.00. It is real easy to put in so save the labor money. That was about a year ago, have not had a problem since. The tech also said that if you wash your motor a lot that you can get some build up on the module. Don’t know if this is the same problem but it is worth looking at.
