MY TRUCK BURNS OF THE EMC FUSE, AND SHUTS OF THE FUEL PUMP. THIS PROBLEM IS RECENTLY AND THOUGHT IT THE FUEL PUMP AND IT STILL BURNED THE FUSE. I PUT A NEW FUSE AND WORKED GREAT FOR A WHILE AND NOW IT BURNS IT AS SOON AS I PUT THE IGNITION FORWARD.

Hello, sometimes these databases aren't correct, but my info showed the ecm1--15 amp fuse supplies voltage to the pcm and ignition module. You could unplug b+ to the ignition module, see if it still blows the fuse? If it doesn't blow, change the plugs and plug wires, those are maintenance issues anyway. Got to start somewhere? It could be a problem with the wiring circuit somewhere?
