No start back after one year?

Almost to the year exactly my 3.2 failed to start again. Last time I didn't have time to diagnose it. It started the next day immediately as usual. It turns over fast but nothing is happening. Tried my extra DME relay so thats not it. Hope it goes away for another year and starts tomorrow but if it doesn't whats the easiest way to check for fuel and spark on a 3.2. ? I imagine sticking a spare spark plug into a wire and grounding on the engine for spark buts whats the easiest for fuel injectors? The car always starts immediately except for once a year then it wont start at all. Dammit... wanted to go up to the track this weekend. Any suggestions appreciated thanks Doug

Sounds like switched power is an issue. Check power to DME. On and off with the key.

I assume you have spark?
