The problem is the fuel pump sucks. Who would put a fuse in a bomb in the first place..
Yes it keeps the pump cool when there is fuel in the tank. But when the tank is low the pump heats up and it the connection is not as good as you thought the wiring will over heat and burn some where. I would guess having the pump in the tank where there is no oxygen you don't get to explode to day. So replace the pump and move on. Its not to hard to do your self if your handy. I only seem to have one problem, the gas gaugeif you over fill the tank. I think it is caused by vacuum some how messing with the float. Its a brand new pump and gauge and it only happens when you over fill the tank.

Got any answers to that problem.

Hope it was a help.. Make sure you get a good fuel filter from the dealer , the pressure release valve will stick if you get a bad one and the car will act as if it
is having a hard time starting.. until the pressure builds up and then the car will
run. Or you burn up the starter..

Thank for listening.........
