I realize that this is an old post, but I am going to post here anyway... just in case someone else with this problem stumbles by... and, since the original poster didn't post his findings and/or fix.

I was having this same problem. Every time I started my engine the meter fuse would blow.
There is a bundle of plugs mounted on the passengers fender. Some of the wires go around behind the engine. There is a push tab that holds the wires up against the back of the valve cover. On mine (a '95 4WD XE Auto), this push tab had become brittle, probably from the heat, and came out of the valve cover which allowed the wires to fall down onto the exhaust manifold. This, in turn, burned some of the shielding off of the wiring and allowed them to short against the manifold.
I pulled the wires up and wire tied them to the lower heater hose and that solved my problem.
So, if you are having this problem, this should be one of the first places you look.
