I was driving to work and my car was running fine and then it died. I replaced the fuel pump two years ago and found that the fuse to the injector blew I replaced it and started it and it ran then I put it in drive and then it blew. I then replaced and let it run and drove it not even 1/4 of a mile and it blew again. I cannot determine why the fuse keeps blowing. What would be hooked up to the fuel injector fuse besides it self? Any input would be appreciated.

Thank You

The fuel pump and injectors are on the same circuit. How long since you changed the fuel filter? How is the fuel pressure?

You might do an ohms test on individual injectors, see if they have close to the same reading. My generic info says 11-18 ohms.

I looked at info for a 6 cylinder, I didn't see a 4 listed?
