Thats your alternator and solenoid valve fuse. Does it pop when the key is forward or
when you just put the fuse in? check the wires going to your alternator make sure they aint grounding out.

Do you have a kill switch? My switch was contacting some metal, so I just wrapped it up with electrical tape and that solved my fuse blowing foolishness.

Same here. Your fuel pump is on the same circuit.

That's definitely it.

the fuel pump is on the same circuit. Find out where you fucked up the wiring and fix it.
