starting troubles (kinda long- I need diagnostic help)

I am having troubles with my 86 900S. It won't start (ususally). With increasing regularity the motor doesn't start, not even turn over. It'll run if I pop the clutch, but...
What it isn't: New battery, and swapped out the following: Starter motor and solenoid, coil, ignition amplifier in the fusebox. Knock sensor checks okay. Coil gets supply voltage, so does the starter when key is in 'start' position. Ignition amp on fender wall gets supply voltage, as does the EZK module. There is voltage between contacts 30 and 50 for the ignition switch.
I am going to go get some new spark plug wires (coil lead tests at >4Kohms) but they only have 4000 +/- on them.
Any ideas? This is driving me nuts. Thanks.
