fuse for main fuel pump extremly hot 200

I had the same problem on my 1980 245. Locate the fuel pump relay, it should be above the drivers left knee. Remove the cover and look closely at the solder joints (I used an eye loupe). EVERY one of the joints holding the magnetic coil on mine were fractured. I re-soldered the joints, the resistance returned to normal and the fuel pump fuse is now cool to the touch.
