Cool Installed the MPGuino and killed the car... (FIXED)

****FIXED, The FI fuse was blown****

Well, I installed the MPGuino on my '92 Geo Metro XFI and drove it around the block to test the installation.
The gauge was not displaying anything for Instantaneous, I believe that the Tank was reading 999.99 (I think).

Went around the block once (maybe 0.5 miles), then started the second pass.
I pulled over (at the base of a hill), put the car in Neutral. I was going to check the VSS connection (near the fuse block). About 5 seconds after I let off the clutch, the car died. It would not restart.

I checked all the fuses => all fuses were good
I removed the gauge => still will not start
I removed the power, negative, and Injector connections => still will not start
I checked the hacked connection to bypass the Injector resistor, connection still good. I thought that I might have disrupted the connection, when I spliced the connection to it..

Full tank of fuel, all dash lights, starter engages.
Acts like no fuel or spark...

What could have I done to the car with the install?!
