    I jumped my truck blew 2 fuses. 30 amp abs #2. 120amp alt. replaced those now starts. Idle acceleration is variable and pushing the gas pedal does nothing.
    Any thoughts.

    That's what I was thinking. When I pieced my truck back together I left the MAF plug loose and the truck kept falling on its face when I floored it. Figured it out same day because the smog tech told me it was throwing a MAF code

    Video of said jump is required for proof, before help can be aided.

    Mostly so we can just laugh at you and call you dumb.

    Jump as in dead battery, used jumper cables. Not jump as in Evel Knievel. I think there's some confusion afoot.

    You blew more fuses than those 2. Youre gonna have to take them out, and inspect them. Odds are, there are 2 or 3 more that are blown.

    The only thing that would blow the fuses that you did would be reversed cables during a jump any thing could be wrong. Good luck.

    Maybe the battery was/is loose and bounced up and arched on the hood

    Added extra awesomeness to its original awesomeness.
    I think he means jump started, you want pics of the cables or battery? I could be wrong, but sounds electrical.

    In that case I suspect that the OP is color blind which lead him to clamp the jumper cables in reverse polarity

    To clear up the confusion, you mean you jumped the truck as in you jump started the truck?
    I would imagine you probably blew more fuses than you know.

    OP mia right after posting, strange...

    If reversed jumper cables, major fubar, complete testing of all circuits is in order.....lots of electrical possibilities, especially if it took out the alternator...
