Re: problem with fuses or relays
What amprage is the fuse? I would hope that it should blow before anything gets that hot.

Re: problem with fuses or relays
If you have a resistive (read poor) connection then it is likely to get hot. Sounds like you might have a bad connection in your fuse box or a bad relay. Maybe that was the original problem with the pump. Maybe the old pump was good but there was a poor electrical connection to it.
If you have a bad connection then you will be able to measure a volt drop across that part. Mark

Re: problem with fuses or relays
Good idea to also trace all your grounds for the fuelpump as well as check polarities and follow the harness all the way up with a multimeter and check your continuity....(have someone shake the harness while you are metering so that you can see if there are any breaks during movement)
