bad fuse?

hey guys been reading through the search and didn't find the answer i was looking for, is it possible that the fuel pump fuse (near the battery the 20 amp) to not be blown yet still be causing a problem?

Re: bad fuse?

not likely - but that wiring system may have fault. The wire runs from a fusible link, through that fuse, then to the oil pressure sending unit, then to the fuel pump. there may be an issue with your oil pressure sending unit, located above the oil filter.
