a quick update:
Drove the car till it died again. This time no fuse blew. Sounded like no fuel when I tried to start it, fuel pump didn't turn on with key on, no error codes (except 12), and relay tested fine. I dropped the fuel tank, and there is a crack right through the top. I'm guessing rust and who knows what else has clogged and/or killed the fuel pump. The good news is I have the other two sidekicks that I bought for parts, so I will do a straight tank swap. I think I'll pick up a new fuel filter first though.
Anything I'm forgetting?
