I could be talking from what I'm sitting on, but I had a similar problem with my
old (86) Daytona 4cyl. It turned out to be the pickup plate in the distributer.
The pickup plate is what replaced the points and condenser. I'm not sure what
is in yours, but it is an idea.

My '89 3.9L v-6 (fuel injected) Is turning over, but not starting.
I started having this problem about a week ago.I drove it for about 3
days with no trouble. It would start and then die in the middle of
driving.The engine would just cut off in the middle of the road. Some
mornings the engine would start, some it wouldnt. I've checked the spark
coil, the plugs, and i've tried cleaning the throttle body with carb
cleaner. Im not sure why the engine works sometimes, and doesnt others.
Could this problem be related to the computer chip? Im up the creek
without a paddle. Any help would be appreciated!
