Default 3.6 cranks but no start
Engine cranks over fine. Engine is getting fuel but no spark. Funny thing is the car has been running fine for the longest time. I parked it recently for about an hour.
Hasn’t started since. Note: Car is an 86 930 but engine is a 3.6 VarioRam conversion done by Instant G sometime ago. I'm not sure where to start but any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Most likely the DME relay, it will be under the drivers seat. Steve uses the 3.2 version not the 993 version of this relay.
