THE CAR HAD COUGHED TO A STOP AND I SUSPECTED THE FUEL PUMP.  THERE WAS NO PRESSURE IN THE FUEL RAIL SO I PULLED THE PUMP OUT OF THE TANK.  I CHECKED THE PUMP WITH A BATTERY AND IT RAN FINE.  THEN I STARTED LOOKING AT THE FUSES AND FOUND THE 20A PUMP FUSE BLOWN.  OBVIOUSLY THERE WAS A SHORT SOMEWHERE.     AS YOU CAN SEE BY PIC 2 THE SHORT OCCURRED WHEN THE \"HOT\" WIRE INSULATION WAS WORN THROUGH ON THE FLOAT BRACKET.  IN ORDER TO BLOW A 20A FUSE THERE MUST HAVE BEEN A SPARK.  FORTUNATELY, IT APPEARS THAT THE CONTACT POINT WAS UNDER THE LEVEL OF THE GASOLINE WHEN THE SHORT OCCURRED AND NOTHING ELSE HAPPENED.  IF THE POINT HAD BEEN ABOVE THE GASOLINE IN THE VAPOR AREA THE RESULTS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH DIFFERENT.  PIC 3 IS HOW I ROUTED THE WIRE BEFORE REPLACING THE ASSEMBLY BACK IN THE TANK.  BTW YOU CAN SEE THAT I DID USE A NEW FUEL PUMP.  I STILL HAVE THE OLD ONE.     I SENT A MESSAGE TO THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY THROUGH THEIR WEB SITE BUT HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING.  AS OF NOW I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY 1997 GRAND MARQUIS SINCE THE DESIGN IS IDENTICAL.  I GUESS MY NEXT STOP IS THE DOT OR BETTER YET YOUTUBE.  I NEVER DID UNDERSTAND PUTTING AN ELECTRIC MOTOR IN THE FUEL TANK.
