ok so i got an 88 ef with a d16z swap. it was running fine one night comin home from work and the cluster light went out. it was a fuse. then i started it up and showed it to some people. ran fine. sat for like 8 days, NOW the battery is dead. i swapped a new one in and tried to start it. it turns over but will not fire up. all the plugs get spark, the fuel rail gets fuel, the starter is doin work, but it doesnt want to start up. i checked all the fuses and i had a main 60W fuse blown, fixed it. still wont turn over. wtf! i havent touched it at all in the time that it sat.

I'd hit the injectors with a multimeter to make sure those aren't an issue.

The plugs are getting spark - I'm wondering if it isn't weak?

Might double check your grounds and make sure it isn't throwing any codes. Test or have the alternator tested to make sure it's good.

Timing shouldn't have changed...

Hmm. Question really is, what is blowing your fuses left and right?
