fuel pump fuse? e250 1991 ford van 1991

hello,
i really need help!
my van seemed to have runout of gas...no reading on gauge. i have a driveway from h*ll and going up thru the deep ruts something caught of the return fuel line of the rear tank fuel pump. i reconnected the line and wiggled abit <too much?> which caused the fuel pump wires on top of my pump to arch. i tried to switch tanks,the vehicle stalled first. second tank <front one> gets no reading on gauge either. i know there are three pumps; 2 low pressure on tanks and one high pressure on frame. iwas told to locate the inline fuse but cannot find it anywhere! am considering taking apart wiring harness and trying to follow wires- which i know nothing about nor can i figure out the wiring schematics in my manual. Please help...i had to have vehicle towed home and have been searchin for these fuse for hours....i called hte ford dealerships who have given me too many various answers as to whether there is even inline fuses or a box <can't find either!>

Welcome to the diy forums Diana

I don't know too much about your van but buying a repair manual is a good place to start. You can buy a Haynes manual specific to your vehicle [and a few others] at autozone for a little over $15.

Wiring diagrams here:

Did you also check to make sure your inertia shutoff wasn't tripped?

Hoping you can read wiring schematics and use a multi-meter? It appears from the diagram that circuit has a fusible link vice a fuse.

The haynes manuals usually have wiring diagrams located on the last few pages.
