Yep, I'm with Taylor on this one.
When the ECU goes out, a lot of time it gives no warning and just stops working all of a sudden. When mine went out last year, the coupe drove fine all the way to Mellow Mushroom. When we went to leave a few hours later, it just wouldn't start. Fuel pump primed, fuel pressure was normal, coil was good, MSD was working, etc. I finally got a used ECU from Lee and it fired right up.
What you are describing is exactly what I went through. I even made the same "no fuel smell" observation that you did. The bottom line is, the ECU get's taken out and is not telling the injectors to fire at all.
I would tens to rule out a broken wire because that would normally cause an erratic condition at first and usually gives some warning before it just stops working.
