Twice now, the fuel pump fuse, (20 amp) located under the hood in the power box has blown. Both times, it was immediately on coming to a complete stop.
Looking back, the first time, I was at the bottom of a steep decline, the second time, a very slight decline.
Question 1: What else is on this circuit?
Question 2: Any clue on why this is happening?

CAN'T SAY FOR SURE HAVE FOUND THERE ARE BARE WIRES OR BURNT WIRES GOING DOWN TO OXYGEN SENSOR AND ABOVE THE FRONT DRIVESHAFT CHECK THESE FOR BURNT AND FRAYED WIRES THAT CAUSE THE SHORTS. ALSO CHECK BACK AT TANK MAKE SURE YOU DIDN'T CRIMP ANY WIRES WHEN CHANGING FUEL PUMP DALE
