engine died 200 91

Greetings:

Just found your site, on the assumption there must be such a site!

On my way home from work tonight, the engine in my 91 240 suddenly died. It happened instantaneously, like turning off a light switch. The engine cranks fine and sounds normal while cranking, but no start. Before I left it, I checked for spark by pulling a spark plug wire - no spark.

The car has 110k miles on it, is in very nice condition, and had a new belt at 87k miles.

Where should I start troubleshooting? Any known weak spots in the ignition?

Frank Starr

Seattle

ps - Yes, it's still raining in Seattle.
