Well to make a long story short,a week ago i started to take the whole F.I and engine tin out of the car for cleaning (engine comparment was full of leaves) then today when i finished putting everything in I tried cranking the engine, but when i turned the key, the Fuel Pump fuse burned out, I checked the connection that goes to the pump and everything looks ok. Can anyone please tell me what they think might be causing this? or what I should check for?

Junior: I just went through that. The fuel pump gets its signal form the computer. You need to isolate the circut that is blowing the fuse. Try pulling the relays one at a time.

That fuse is also for the heater blower motor. Maybe it is shorted to gound somewhere when you put everything back. Take a look for that.

Your AAR is grounding out at the plug likely. It is the same power. AAR=canister looking thing that air is bypassed through. I'll bet that that is it (ask me how I know).
