electrical fault maybe if the fuse keeps blowing?

 

[paul.goffin]

Any chance you've trapped a cable somewhere and you have an earth fault?

 

[jordbalboa]

that sounds quite likely.

 

[whitmarshj]

could it be the earth fot the injectors? iv noticed every1 earths them to the rocker cover but i thought this looked **** so earthed it to the inlet mani?

Please don't use text speak as per forum rules.

For the fuse to blow i would have thought something is shorting out. A lack of earth or a poor earth shouldn't cause it. It seems that what ever is blowing it isn't causing it to go on start up, so maybe its something that kicks in after a short drive or once the car is moving?

Im presuming though i am not an auto electrician.

ok iv found the probelm its a plug from one of the sensers sorting out on the crossmember for the slam pannel!

 

[whitmarshj]
