Blowing EGI INJ fuse?

I just got back from towing the car back home. Blew the 40amp ENG INJ fuse and I can't figure out why. I took the upper manifold off and inspected the wireing harness and looked at the wireing for the injectors nothing there so I re-wrapped them. Looked at the wires for the coils and I didn't see anything there.

Right before the fuse blew the car would buck like crazy from a stop and through the gears. If I take of real slow almost like a crawl then it wouldn't do it. When the fuse blew I put a new one in then it wouldn't start. So I towed it home.

Checked: AFM connection, no air leaks, Wireing harness looks to be fine, coils and wireing are ok, checked the TPS.

This just started happening today. I have a CDI box, rewired walbro, 2x720's with resistors.

Time to follow the circuit diagrams in the back of the FSM. I went through a few blown EGI fuses before I realized that my crusty wiring near the BAC plug were allowing wires to short out against each other. Consequently the BAC was removed and no more EGI fuses were blown.

Figured it out. Followed the wiring harness from the injectors to the firewall and found a spot that I had missed, I put a make shift heat shield for the turbo and it had cut into a couple of wires. Runs like a raped ape now!
