      It ran just fine but then one day after coming out of a store and trying to start it, it would crank well but would not even try to fire.
      It is not producing spark. It seems to be getting fuel.

      Here is what I have tried –

      Related fuses and relays are good.
      Distributor gap is within specs.
      I tried a different ignition control module. Battery Voltage IS reaching it. BTW it is external
      Tried two different coils (both measured within resistance specs)
      Distributor cap is good, as is rotor.
      Tried installing a different crank sensor. BTW, neither on the old nor new one can I get a stable ohm reading.
      Nothing looked broken nor disconnected under the dash.

      The codes present are –
      12 (no RPM signal within several seconds of cranking)
      21 & 27 (main and sub oxygen sensors)
      There are no other codes.

      The only thing I have not tried is replacing the condenser in the distributor. Would that part even cause a crank/no start?
      If not, what is my next step?

      Thank you

        This should be the first place to start you diagnostics..
        Find out why your not getting a rpm signal.
        Be that, a broken wire, faulty connection, faulty connector, ECM issue etc.

          I should probably mention that I tried to start it after forgetting to reconnect the distributor.
          I have since had the battery disconnected and reconnected and that code hasn’t returned.
