Hello. I have a 95 Cobra with a crank / no start issue. The car did start and ran for 10 minutes but I shut it down, it will not restart, just cranks. I can smell fuel. Plugs are dark. Fuel pressure is 40#s. I do have MSD dizzy & coil. Dizzy is new, coil is a year old. ICM module is from Motorcraft & is only a year old. I have OM dizzy w/ a brand new PIP & OM coil. Going to swap out MSD stuff with Motorcraft parts & plugs. Is it possible that MSD dizzy electronics are really that bad or maybe MSD coil is bad? Any other ideas than above mentioned is greatly appreciated.

Possible
Do you have Spark from your coil or not
Do you have spark at the plugs test the pick up inside of distributor
I'd test that first
Then move on to tfi on fender passenger side
Auto zone has the tester for it

I had strong spark at the plugs then it was very weak spark. I called a local AutoZone & she said they don’t test the TFI module anymore. Going to try a different local AutoZone. Thank you so much for the insight. Will keep you posted.

have you checked for spark or the signal for it? A timing light can be used to see if its triggering, or a noid light can be borrowed from a parts store, or pull the plug and have a buddy crank it while you look and try not to get shocked.
