Dead DIU, just like that!

My 92 9000T had been running fine, then no starts. Fuel pump operating, starter moter turning engine, engine "tries" to start now and then, but doesn't.
I did not suspect DIU because the unit was replaced about 30,000 miles ago. But before committing to more extensive investigation, I swapped a known good DIU from my newly acquired 98 CSE. Now the 92 starts right up, runs fine, while 98 CSE won't start (wife chides me about using a 98 as a "parts car" for a 92).
In retrospect, the only warning the DIU was giving me, if this was a warning, is that it took about 4 seconds of cranking before the car would start. Wife's 93 CSE takes only about 2 seconds to start (Yes we have three 9Ks now. Maybe this is why they are are to find, we all have more than one).
Bottom line, new parts fail too.
