Ford: 1985 f250 wont start, f 250, fuel pump


Question
hi i have a 1985 f 250 with a carbureted 460 with the hot fuel set up ,the truck ran fine until last night ,i was out warming the truck up and i noticed that i had a fuse blown,i started pulling fuses one at a time to see which one was blown and the truck stalled and would not start i am getting fire but no fuel ,do you have any ideal what happened ,the truck ran fine before

Answer
First thing to do is check the fuel pump.... is it electric or mechanical... What fuse was blown?  did you damage anither fuse when you were pulling them? Have you tried starting fluid in the carb? if you do don't use a lot... Let me know what happens and we can go further on with this..
