In which switch position does the fuse blow? Or is it only when you change the switch that the fuse blows?

You are going to have to crawl under the truck and find the solenoid that switches the fuel lines. Look at all the add-on wiring. Look at the wiring going to the add-on tank. And also look at the wiring where it goes through the firewall.

People's wiring practices are sometimes not very good, and a wire is probably rubbing somewhere.
