94 Explorer blowing eec fuse

[greasemonkey6886]

a friend of mine has a 94 Explorer that keeps blowing the eec maxi fuse in the power distribution box. He says that it blows within a second or so of the fuel pump kicking on. He says that he replaced the fuel pump about a month ago. I suspect the fuel pump wiring bad, any other ideas?

Not really sure what causes the problem, my parents had a 95 explorer 4.0L that did the same thing. Not all the time but once in a while it would trip the fuel pump relay. None of the shops could find out why either, just came to the realization that it was just a piece of crap vehicle.

I would disconnect the fuel pump and and confirm that is what is blowing that fuse.
