Ok Steve, your theory is more than likely correct. Lol. I've replaced the battery in the car because the old one was done anyway. Had been in the car for 9 years. Lol. But, the fuse is still blowing. And, it's NOT during cranking, its just turning the key to on. This makes more sense than the scenario I provided the first time. I'll start back over from the beginning so I can find the culprit. I unplugged the ECM, and the fuse still blew. I'll keep you guys posted.

Mine had a problem where the injector harness was shorting near the egr valve. Im not sure yours is similar but you could look on the manifold there and see if the harness is on the egr valve.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

ok ok, so apparently my knock gauge was the problem. The signal wire from the knock gauge I was running into the purple and black wire. The connection was fine, but a bit of the wire was exposed. Idk if the signal wire from the knock gauge was pinched or what, but after eliminating the splice between the signal wire from knock gauge to the ignition wire, all was well.  :cheers:
