if its the 1 closest to windscreen then thats fuel pump hence why it turns and doesnt start. Reason for blowing?overloading is the cause so maybe faulty fuel pump,trapped wire etc.Does it blow straight away?

if as previous poster says it is fuel pump fuse then check the wiring under seat as i have heard the plug can melt and short out?
