Electrical/Fuseable Link Issues
Today my 91 Dodge died on meand will not turn over. When I did some checking I found one of the fusable links by was blown. It was one of the orange 20ga links that feeds the ignition switch. I replaced the link but as soon as I tried to start it the new link blew too. I havent found any shorts in the circuit. I also checked the ignition switch and had 30-60 ohms accross the switch. Is this too high?? Could this be causing my link to blow?? ANy other ideas?? Thanks for any help.

When I switched injector pumps, the new pump had a bad solenoid on it and fried the same link. You might try unplugging the shutdown solenoid and see if it still fries the link.

I think you need to pull out the old wiring diagram and follow where that little 20g wire runs and fix the short.
I had the same problem, can't remember which wire it was, but due to a short the truck wouldn't start. It ended up being the wire to the dome light.
On yours, it could be one of several different components.
