Yep, that's what it's doing today.
Got me to work, and then NOTHING...
Replaced battery about 3 weeks ago.
It's been running like a champ with Fred Brown's tranny and Lidio's tune.
It has a fresh set of Accel Coils, Granatelli Wires and new Spark Plugs.

It refused to start when I stopped at Dunkin Donuts,
but then started after sitting for 5 minutes and ran like nothing happened.
When I got out of work at 7:30 this morning, it would only crank.

I've got fuel, and it cranks very quickly with this new battery.
It just sounds like I'm not getting a spark or any injector action.

Called Triple A "AAA" and had it towed to my dealership.
I'm hoping its a cam/crank sensor or both. At 126k, I'm going to have both replaced if it is one or the other.
It doesn't sound like an ECM unless the coil/injector drivers have died.
The PATS still recognizes the key and allows the engine to crank.

I'll let you know once I hear something......

Any wearing on the cables running behind the heads?

I've gotten my first response so far and the ECM has a code for the crankshaft sensor.

That will do it. Crank sensor controls ignition, cam sensor is fuel.

Crank Sensor produces Sync Pulse.
Cam Sensor produces Timing for Ignition and Injectors.
Without either, your DEAD.

I had both replaced. :coolman:
