b7800

b7800 all of a sudden quit and won't start again. It keeps blowing the 30 amp fuse to the fuel solenoid before I can even get the fuse in all the way. It doesn't matter whether the solenoid is plugged in or not. Anyone know what's up?

Sounds like a direct short to ground somewhere. Take the power supply off of the solenoid and see if the short goes away. You can also jump power to the solenoid to make sure the engine will start as well.

Good luck! :thumbsup:

Yes I agree, direct short to ground. Trace wires to see if insulation on any supply wires have worn off and is touching metal which will go to ground. Start at battery and work towards the switch. keep use posted with results, good luck you'll find it if you take the time.

I blew it out and stuck a new fuse in and it fired right up. Thanks everyone for the input.
