what year ?

what do you think fuse 30 goes to ?

in the 7.3 it is the WIF/pcm circuit and typically caused by a shorted fuel bowl heater

best bet is order the fuel bowl rebuild kit while you have it out. gonna need at a minimum new parker sleeves no mater what. the billet fuel pressure cap will solve the failure prone cast threads that seem to fail no matter how gingerly you treat them and the spring and popet need replacing every 100k to maintain adequate pressure.
