The engine light came on then I blew an ingnition coil (expensive), I replaced the coil and relay, ran great then it started to happen again. I fould a by-passed ignition fuse under the hood but still have a problem in the harness or some other sensor. I need help, has anyone experienced this situation?

The first thing I would recommend is replacing the fuse. It could be defective and allowing too much amperage to pass into the coil. If you'd like a more sure answer, use an Amp probe on the cable from the fuse while and car is running. If the fuse is rated for 20 Amps and you're pulling 20+, then the fuse might be failing. Next, you need to see why the circuit is pulling too many amps. It's probably got a short somewhere... Remove the fuse and check continuity to a chasis ground. If you have some continuity, begin taking the circuit apart and tracing the source of the continuity. I'll bet you have a chasis ground somewhere in your wiring or in a connection.
Hope this helps.
