I wouldn't sweat the Spark. You are getting gas and some spark. So It sounds like the ECU is satisfied.
I'm leaning toward Too much gas.
Did you pull off the front hose on the Fuel Pressure Regulator and look for gas?
That hose should be dry.

Take the plugs out and let them and the cylinders dry. While waiting:
Pull that small hose from the Regulator to the Intake Manifold off on the Intake side. Plug that nipple. put the plugs back in and try to Start it.
Taking that hose off will keep a leaky Regulator from dumping fuel into the Intake.
