fuel issues

I had no fuel pump priming or anything. Replaced the fuel pump relay, the fuel pump, the fuel pump fuse, and the ignition module, still nothing. When I turn the key my fans come on, guages come on but no fuel pump priming..turn the key over and it cranks. Any other ideas?

Did you check the fuel pump/ECM fuse along the right inner fender?

unfortunately, yes lol Someone on another board thought maybe VATS, but I have spark...doesn't VATS cut out fuel and spark?

ok, VATS is out of the question, everything is fine there. However, I did notice that now my fuel pump fuse keeps blowing. I also noticed my connection for the alternator came off, which makes sense why when the car broke down I lost volts. If that wire coming off the alternator touched metal (which I'm sure it did), could that cause a short and fry something? I only question that because it's not a hot lead. I traced around wires from that fuse and don't see anything visible that would cause a short. At least my problems are narrowed lol
