okay everything was fine in my s14 until i installed a walbro fuel pump...i got it in and the car would not start anymore so i check out all the wiring and it was good...so i then checked the fuses in the car by the clutch pedal and the starter signal fuse was blown, it is a 7.5amp fuse so i replaced it and it went out again???i then tried a 10amp fuse and it also went out...
so i stop and that and wanted to get someone elses suggestion on what is wrong???i didnt want to go bigger then a 10amp fuse...

your harness is grounding out somwhere

Double check for no exposed wires

Do not use any fuse higher then what is suppose to be there you will cause more damage if you do.

check to see that your walboro is grounded suffieciently.

i would personally run a new ground wire to a better ground.

i would also wire in a relay and a fused right off the battery 12v for the walboro.
