Here's a puzzle for OBD1 enjoyers here.
1995 (late 94 build date) E36 325i vert having a crank no start issue. This started randomly. Ran fine and started fine one day and not the next.
This is what my roommate and I have done to try and get it back up and running.
1. Swapped over a different ECU, same issue
2. Swapped in a new crank sensor and tested previous one and it was fine
3. I'm getting fuel pressure (I hear the pump prime, I took off fuel hose at the rail a couple times and yep there is fuel pressure
4. Coils are getting constant 12 V, but there is no spark.
5. Don't say EWS because this gen of EWS is no crank, and this cranks beautifully.
Any advice ideas would be nice, thank you.

Verify fuel pressure properly with a gauge.
Was the car in heavy rain?

With a meter test the crank sensor even if its new, ~510 ohms.
