Re: Engine feed fuse keep blowing out. that runs to feul...
Check first the wire for loose or exposed wires. The blowing of fuse means that there is an excess amount of current passing to the circuit caused by additional loads or a short.

do you mean fuel pump? well if it stops working then no fuel will get pumped to motor and car will not start but it will still crank over. spray starting fluid into air intake and see if car starts, if it does it will only run for a couple seconds, then your engine is not getting fuel.
I would check to make sure you have voltage at the pump with the switch on.If you do the replace the pump.If you do not check voltage at the relay in fuse block and also the feul pump fuse.Let me know if I can help.There is no pressure switch.
Start by checking for a wire shorting to ground if that checks good you will need to go thru the circuit and check the amp draw at each component, fuel pump,ignition coil,ect. until you find the bad part
Are you using the same power feed from the old radio? If so, your new radio may require a higher current fuse. Check the manufacturers information the came with the custom radio and make certain the current (amps) required is the same.
If the new radio has a higher power amplifier for increased audio, it will blow a low rated fuse.
On the other hand, it sounds as though you may have pinched the power feed wire in the radio bracket, trim cover or have it resting agaist a sharp bracket. So when you put the car in drive, the dash flexes enough to cause the short.
Does it blow the fuse when you shift to reverse?
let me know.
Regards,
TRY TO BANG ON THE BOTTOM OF THE GAS TANK WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY TURNING THE KEY SWITCH TO THE ON POSITION, WITH A GOOD FUSE IN THE FUSE PANEL, THIS SHOULD JAR THE PUMP ENOUGH TO HELP IT SPIN. IF THIS DOESN'T WORK AFTER THREE TRIES, THEN REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP AS IT HAS LOCKED UP. HOPE THIS WORKS FOR YOU. KEEP ME POSTED PLEASE. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.
