I have 95 gt with 200,000 on it and now is having issues with starting. If car is sitting for awhile it will start right up but if i drive it for awhile then turn it off it will not turn back on. It will crank and I have spark and i can really smell fuel. Have no idea whats going on with it.

a haynes/chilton manual can tell you the paperclip method. The test port is under the hood, on the passenger side shock tower. You have to jumper the 2 test ports together.

90% sure it's the pip. It may or may not throw a code. replacement pip is @ 20 bucks and a dizzy is about $120 with a warrenty.

be warned, replacement dizzy does not always have a new pip sensor in it, seen too many go bad with in a few miles of installing, best to get a new sensor, or a brand new dizzy from the parts store, no remans

new dizzy and still having the same issues. I can smell fuel and when I unplug the connector to the fuel pump under the tank it will start but run really rough as soon as I connect it back it instantly dies. Dont have a clue what it is?

That's new as well. Think the fuel pump or fuel filter needs to be replaced. If I push the gas pedal all the way down and and turn the key it will rev really loud then die.
