For a good reference on how to connect the hoses to the fuel distributor,
check http://www.dmcnews.com/Techsection/fuelhoses.htm . This is a good
diagram that Nick Pitello posted.

Since you have found the source of your problem with the #7 fuse and
it is the result of someone's previous unprofessional repair we can
assume that you may have a similar situation in the fuel system. Take
nothing for granted. Hoses may or may not be connected or connected
correctly. Trace each hose to it's source and verify routing and
condition. This may be an old problem that was never corrected and the
car ran although not correctly. It is easy to mix up hoses on the fuel
distributer if you are not careful so start there. In diagnosing a
problem you have to assume many things. In your case it will be unwise
to take anything for granted now. There is a tee connection in the
return line, that is a good place to start tracing the return lines to
make sure that it is connected and working. Using 2-1-0 in the parts
manual verify the entire return line from fuel regulater to tank.
