Default '95 940, random no-start/stall/no spark. Have replaced CPS & fuel pump & coil...

B230F non turbo: When it will start it will fire right up and run just fine. Sometimes it will run until I shut it off (an hour the other day...test drove it around & got home no problem), other times may stall after just 20 seconds. I can start/shut down several times then the next key up it will not start. Each time that happens there is no spark at the coil.
I first replaced the fuel pump (have the single...Regina?... high pressure in-tank pump) for 1...I knew it had been abused and 2...I burned it up anyway by forgetting to remove the pump relay jumper I tried.
That didn't help. I finally diagnosed it down to a no-spark condition each time it stalled or wouldn't start. This last weekend I replaced the crank position sensor. No change. I've also changed the coil. No change.
It's got over 233,000 miles on it. I didn't pay much for it and it's served me well for the past 6 yrs or so and I don't intend to put a lot of money into this repair...beyond what I've done.
I get no codes...1-1-1 on A2 & A6.
Any suggestions on what to check next? Thanks.

Forgot to mention I also replaced dist cap & rotor. but now I'm not sure if I got the correct rotor.
The FCP Euro site lists 3 different rotors...either for Bosch fuel injection only or for REX Regina fuel injection only.
How can I be sure of which I have? I thought that since I have the single high pressure in-tank fuel pump that it is the REX Regina system. Is that correct?
Though the pump I took out (which I believe to be original) was a Bosch pump. So now I'm confused as to which rotor is correct.

The Bosch systems will have the soda can style ignition coil while a Regina has a box

Check the rotor
check the ignition
also check the main relay

So the "Regina" system can be fuel and/or ignition?

Regina fuel injection is generally mated with Rex ignition. I've hear dof cars that had Regina injection with Bosch ignition, so all sorts of weirdnesses are possible.

on the injection side, Regina uses a MAP sensor, while Bosch LH uses a MAF/AMM. These are quite different.
