I have run my F-150 out of gas before and all I had to do was replace the 30A fuse under the dash luckily.Now I have run my truck out of gas again and it blows the fuse immediatly after turning the key to start.I cant check for pressure nor can I hear the pump run because the fuse blows immediatly.I think the pump is locked up.What do you think?Thank You.

Welcome to the forum, are you saying the fuse blows before you turn on the key? The 30 amp fuse, I looked at was for the ignition coils and coil side of pcm relay. The fuse circuit goes hot when you turn on the key. Possible problem with a coil??
