I had the same problem, my ACV wires were shorting (removed ACV/ wires dangling). Find out everything that goes through that fuse and check it out.

could be any number of wires shorting out on the block or shorting out together, only thing you can do to start with is do a thorough visual inspection of the wiring harness, also pay close attention to the wires leading into the control solenoids near the oil filler neck, these can sometimes burn out internally and cause the fuse to blow, look for darkened colored wires where they go into the solenoid connector.

Yeah, it's a short somewhere. On my NA, there was a metal clip for the EM wiring harness. After years of vibration, it wore the insulation down and caused a short.
