A fuse will blow for 2 reasons .
1) If the device has a Short in the circuit that runs through this fuse.
2) If the device draws more amperage from the power source through the fuse than the fuse will handle.
ex. if a fuel pump or starter has a 20 amp fuse and the starter/fuel pump is going bad and draws 30 amps
it will blow the fuse.
A fuel pump on a 1996 vehicle is located in the fuel tank and is kept cool by the surrounding gas and the gas
that flows through it. Overheating a fuel pump is virtually impossible.
That being said there is a High probability that replacing the fuel pump and relay will fix this problem.
It is quite common for this to occur in the GM vehicle of 1996. When the pump starts to fail, it draws an
excessive amount of amperage and would blow the fuse. Hope you find this information useful.
does not matter which goes where on the heater core one from water pump straight to heater core and the other comes from the intake manifold, they both travel below the passenger side valve cover.
That noisy pump bothers me, and that's why I question if it's not breaking down once it gets warm/hot, and starts feeding low fuel pressure. Personally, I'd confirm that first before beating my head against the wall, and finding out it was that all along.
try Schram auto and truck parts they sell only GM parts 1-800-292-1032 and you can also try autozone.com to see if they have your car listed for diagrams pictures and step by step instructions if your car is not listed then try your local library they have all the car manuals and even copy them for you
most likelly you fuel pump relay stuck close try to replace it,
and also look for posible bypass circuit installed to run fuel pump all the time, if you bought the car with the problem may be some one by paaseed but if not the replace the fuel relay
