      Pretty sure the ECM B fuse ties in with the fuel pump. A bad fuel pump blowing the ECM B fuse is a common failure in the truck circles as well as it being pretty common to kill an in tank fuel pump with a bump in the road. IMO adding all that togeather means the fuel pump died after hitting the bump and its killing the ECM B fuse.

      My .02 FWIW.

      My guess was a short, which is what the fuel pump is doing, beat bottom of tank with a rubber mallet see if it runs, worked for numerous people,

      thanks

      actualy i found the problem. it was a short on the oil pressure sender. the wire was worn through and was tuching the sensor and blowing the fuse.
