I have a problem with my babie. My car sat for 3 years as I was quite sick and didn't give a damn. Anyway Im better now and want to drive. She had hydro lock and I removed all plugs and fixed that. I go to start her and she keeps blowing #6 fuse. The fuel pump had only a couple of years of use before she sat but I figured she might of clogged up and put a drag on the amps. I tested amp draw but may have got that wrong. She is a 82 SC with no mods. I need help!
I replaced fuel pump and watched fuse #6 turn red and pop...again! I checked the old f.p. and it worked fine.
I also replaced the relay even though the old relay worked.
Tell me the correct way to check amp draw please. I removed the relay and touched leads to 87 and 30, nothing. Turn key on and hear pump and got a reading of 24-26. install relay and start car with leads on #6 fuse, top and bottom and got reading of 4.5 then the fuse gets red hot and blows. Please what is wrong? Where should I check next?
