Cam Sensor Chronic Issue 900 1993

I have an engine turns/no start issue. I can smell gasoline and I am not seeing my tach needle moving when the engine turns over. I replaced the cam sensor less than a year ago, but I suspect it has already failed.

The problem started one year ago. Bought a Tammken sensor off of the web for fast delivery and it failed within two weeks. Ordered a Bougicord from EEuro and they sent me a Bremsi instead. The Bremsi has lasted 11 months. The previous sensor was Volvo brand and lasted 15 years. Those are over $100 now. Are they all trash now, except for Volvo brand (Bougi)?

Is there any way to bench test these sensors? Could any other issue cause a no start/dead tach needle? Thanks, AG
