    Why do u say its a 2000 so should not have any fuel resistor issues? I have a 2000 and ive had a fuel resistor issue before. Or do u mean u have already checked the fuel resistor and there was no issue?

    He should be able to just bend the one tab on the fuse to see if it is the fuel pump issue.

    But that doesn't really sound like the problem.

    no need for a resister. You can run around with the bent tap forever. I've had that done to my White GTP for about 7 years and that was the first mod I did to the Black GTP when I got it.
