I recently purchased a 97 mustang convertible w/v6 for my daughter. After having the car 1 week the eec fuse blew (20 amp maxi) and the car died. I had some fuses with me and replaced it only to have it instantly blow again. I had a 50 amp fuse which it also fried immediatly. I towed the car home and tried it one more time with a 20 amp fuse and it worked perfectley - for 3 days. It then did the same thing. I had it towed to a shop and when it got there they replaced the fuse and it worked again???? They tested everything they could think of and let it run for 2 full days but the problem didn't reoccur.

My question is - what could make this fuse blow then fix itself a couple of hours later???????

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

It sounds like there's somehow too much power draw. Check the wiring from the fuse to the computer and see if anything's worn through.

I guess you found out why they sold it!
