Hi all,

This morning my 245 decided it wanted to sleep in. It will crank & crank but no start. I do get an occasional backfire from the exhaust. I can confirm spark (via timing gun), but haven't confirmed its on time. Pulling the plugs they looked and smelled a bit wet, so I seem to be getting fuel. The CPS has been changed by the previous owner and now is a "white band" unit.
Using various used parts from a car I junked a while back, read as maybe OK, I swapped the Fuel Relay, Coil, and Amplifier w/o results.

The car is getting a 2-3-2 code currently but I would think that to be a red herring as it isn't even able to run now. I did find the snorkel on the intake at the throttle body loose, but it didn't seem to make a difference after I tightened it up.
Suggestions?
