Not sure I understand. At this point everything that happened is mute. You now have rebuilt your engine and tried to start it. It didn't work so you checked and the 80 amp. fuse was blown. You went to start again and the check engine light is on but as you cranked the engine the distributor blew? If so explain blew? 80 amp Fuse still OK? Was it the distributor fuse that blew?


How do you reset distributor on a ford 50 motor after engine is cranked without distibutor installed?

You need to manually rotate the engine and set the number one cylinder at Top Dead Center (TDC) before re-insalling the distributor. Hopefully, you made a mark on the distributor that relates its position to the engine in orde to re-install it as it was. If you forgot to make a mark, try to remember in which direction the rotor was pointing before you removed the distributor (assuming the engine was at TDC) and re-install it as close as you can. At TDC, the rotor normally points toward the number one spark plug wire post. Follow the firing order sequence from there.
