Long story short..

Bringing car up on stall(around 2800) giving it gas and boom, car dies, like it did Saturday at the track. Just had a stall put in along with new tranny components, bring it up on stall, give it gas, DIES? WHY/WHAT is causing my fuse to blow? luckily i had bought an extra one earlier! [Mad]

Oh, I thought you mentioned that the pump was turning on earlier but that the car was just not starting. Thats why I told ya what I did. So now the fuse keeps blowing huh. Strange how it blows only while you bring the car up to stall. Theres got to be a wiring issue somewhere.

Check all the wiring going to the tranny make sure its all plugged in all the way and no wires are pinched. If that looks good then start tracing from the fuse backwards. I'll be home tomorrow if you want some help.

The pump was doing what you were saying, it was spraying fuel outta the top, i ended up putting the other pump back in, then went from there.
