"...still no start and no dashboard dummy lights."

Excellent clue. The common culptit for those two conditions is Fuse #13—not the fuel fuses at all.

Fuse #13 powers the warning lights and the Fuel relay coil. And the problem can be intermittent due to loose/dirty contact between the fuse ends and the spring contacts. Clean them up and squeeze the contacts together a little (fuse out) to increase the spring tension.

IMO there's no need to go the blade fuse route.
