				alright, so here's the deal.  i just bought this car about a week ago for my fiance and had some ignition problems.  i've replaced the internal coil on the distributor, the rotor, , distributor cap, wires, and plugs.  i managed to get the car back to running order and everythign was fine till i decided to clean the engine bay, like i do on eveyr one of my other cars...  i didn't bother to tie off the distributor since i just sealed everything up nice and tight, same with the fuse box.  everything is more than waterproof now.  but, as soon as i sprayed a degreaser in the vacinity between the distributor and the starter, the car shut off and blew the AM2 30amp fuse.  i finished cleaning the engine bay and let it dry for 2 days, went out there and replaced the 30 amp fuse and it cranked over twice and blew the fuse again.  what could be the problem.  i have 3 days to figure this problem out and get the car onthe road for a 10 hour drive for my fiance and myself to go back home to meet the folks.  i also have midterms all this week, so help would be greatly appreciated.  thanks for everything.

				black and orange.... sounds like the 12V battery supply to your car electronics.  
			
			
					
		Take a good look at the fuse box and make sure no water is underneath the box when you take it out of its holder.  |
