No start problem 850 1993

As I understand it, if you have spark then cam sensor good. The sensor determines position of cam so that initial start of engine doesn't cause interference engine to interfere with itself. After startup it isn’t needed.

So you said you had spark, so cam sensor likely good.

So you have fuel & spark? Saw a post about running starter with foot off gas for up to two minutes in this case. Worth a shot.

Or has weather gotten cold lately. Single digits temps can do wierd things too.
