All information is based of a 2000 XJ and the related manuals. Everything listed is a circuit that is either "attached" to the fuse or directly impacted by it.
Power distribution center (under the hood) Looking at the PDC from the front of the vehicle, the bottom right mini fuse is #16, the one above it is #17, the top one in the column is #18. Fuse #19 is to the left (of #16)
Fuse #16 underhood lamp, transmission control module, radio & interior lights Fuse #17 O2 downstream relay fuse #18 coil rail & injectors Fuse #19 headlamp switch & data connector Fuse #20 combination flasher Fuse #22 fuel pump relay Fuse #23 brakelamp switch Fuse #25 fog lamp relay Fuse #26 power amplifier
Interior fuse block
Fuse #1 is the large 25A on the top of the left column Fuse #15 is the large 25A on the top of the right column
Fuse #1 power outlet Fuse #2 cigar lighter Fuse #3 left headlamp Fuse #4 left headlamp Fuse #5 right headlamp Fuse #6 Dash lights (switches, controls, gauge cluster) Fuse #7 license light & the left side turn, parking, marker and tail lamp Fuse #8 Spare Fuse #9 compass, sentry key, headlamp delay module, instrument cluster Fuse #10 transmission range sensor, duty cycle evap/purge solenoid, radiator fan relay, a/c clutch relay, o2 sensor up/downstream relays, back up lamp switch Fuse #11 transmission control module, powertrain control module, automatic shutdown relay, fuel pump relay Fuse #12 instrument cluster, combination flasher Fuse #13 Spare Fuse #14 power mirrors, rear defogger & switch Fuse #15 passenger power lock/window switch Fuse #16 cargo lamp/switch, courtesy lamps, radio, instrument cluster, underhood lamp, transmission control module Fuse #17 radio Fuse #18 power mirror switch, driver power window/lock switch, heated seats Fuse #19 starter motor relay Fuse #20 trailer tow harness & trailer turn relays Fuse #21 horn(s) Fuse #22 rear wiper switch & motor Fuse #23 right side marker, turn, parking and tail lights Fuse #24 Spare Fuse #25 shift lock solenoid, a/c heater control, abs controller, abs controller relay, blower motor relay, blend door actuator Fuse #26 airbag control module Fuse #27 airbag control module

The pump may be going bad

The pump may be going bad This would be my thought... Maybe it's getting too hot and pulling too much current..

Don't forget the fuel pump relay! May swap it with another one and see if your problem moves with the relay.

Thank you everyone im going to order a factory pump and filter tomorrow did you try swapping the relays like n2deep suggested ? If not i would try it... stranger things have happened. Just swap the fuel pump relay with another one in the fuse box and see if a different fuse blows. It could possibly just be that and it's a lot easier than swapping the pump

if I'm not mistaken , there is an inline fuel filter with regulator built in. if it's clogged, it could be forcing the pump to push more causing more of a draw and popping the relay. it's easier and cheaper to replace the filter first.. but at the same time, we've also put a few pumps in to.

IF it is set up like a 98 Wrangler, there is no inline pump, just the two socks in the tank and the regulator is in the fuel pump module.
