I don't know these cars very well but it sounds like a short. Follow the affected wires and look for any short, and if the wires are really tight around any metal brackets or other metal pieces, that is probably where you short is.

It's most likely a short.

If you've got a multi tester and some 8 gauge wire, check for continuity between the terminal in the fuse that keeps blowing and the leads on that circuit.

If you don't have the money for a HELMS factory shop manual, get a cheap Haynes manual from your local Kragen/Auto Zone / etc. You'll need it.
