Why does my 1997 ford f-150 4.2L keep blowing fuses every time i turn the key to start it?

So i was given a truck that was flooded over the roof last time we had a bad rain. I managed to make it run and all the electrical works.It would start right up every time we turned the key.One day we hooked up our battery charger and put it on 100 cranking amps to start it, and then the battery charger started smoking and went goodbye. We put a new battery in it and turned the key to start it and nothing.Checked the fuses under the hood and under the dash and had a few that were blown.Put fresh fuses in, turned the key, blown again. The blinkers don't work nor the ignition. We can still start it from under the hood. Any ideas on what the problem is? Every time we try to turn it over with the key nothing happens and we blow fuses.

Added (1). forgot to mention we used the 100 cranking amp setting on the battery charger countless times before this happened.

How to fix the phone compartment on a 2013 Ford F-150?

I have a 2013 Ford F-150 xlt and under where the radio and AC controls are there's a compartment where you can put your phone and it includes an AUX and USB port. It can open and close and the part that does so came out when something heavy was placed on it. It looks like it could slip back in with some force but I don't want to try and end up breaking it.

How can I improve my money situation?

My girlfriend and I both work 40 hours per week at minimum wage jobs. We make about $1000 each per month after taxes. We live in a small apartment for $435 per month, have cell phones ($110 total), a Comcast triple play ($250 per month, it was $100, then it went up, but I'm locked into contract so I can't cancel), car insurance is $100, electric bill, water bill, totaling approximately $250 per month, $120 for groceries, $550 per month for my consolidation loan. Has my student loans and a few credit cards consolidated. That leaves very little to go around. I have a 97 Ford f150 that I paid cash for a whole back. I go to Columbus (2.5 hours away) every two weeks to visit my grandmother in hospice. I use my aunts 2017 buicm encore to get there. My truck is on it's last leg and I have no way go purchase a new car. If my truck dies, neither of us will be able to get to work then we re going to lose it all. What can I do to get a new car. I also have bad credit.

Mass Air Flow or Speed Density?

I have a 1988 F150 XLT Lariat with a 351w

From what I've read, Ford started using MAF in 89. Therefore my truck was made stock with a speed density system.

Here s where it gets tricky and what I don't exactly understand. The engine in it was replaced by the original owner. They replaced the stock 351w with a 351w out of a 1995 E-150. If it's a 1995 it should have a MAF right? It doesn't though. They re still running the stock speed density from what I can tell considering the lack of a MAF sensor.

Did they do it this way so they didn't have to change out the computer? How well does the 1995 engine communicate with the 1988 computer? Should I go ahead and convert it to MAF so the newer engine performs better since that s what it was made with originally? Would I have to change out the computer?

Basically what I Wana know is, did they do it correctly? Or should I convert to MAF for the newer engine?

Any info would be great thanks!

I'm just wondering if you think it's a scam I'm trying to buy a 2005 Ford F-150 for 2500

He says it's shipping through amazon but is being transported by the lagistics department and amazon supposedly sent me an email and it had an item and everything but the item number starts with a 697 i don't no if this is an actual amazon email because this person has also showed on a picture of the title and the vin number and stuff but it kinda seems to good to be true

1990 ford f150 dies at idle?

My 1990 ford f150 5.0L v8 5 speed manual just started dying at idle due to low rpms. I've been having other issues with the rpms recently such as them shooting all the way up to 2000 during idle, then it fixed itself and now it's having this problem. And ideas on what it might be?
