Cowdenbeath remain above relegation rivals Forfar after securing a 1-1 draw at Station Park.
Both goals came inside the opening four minutes but the lively start petered out and the points were shared.
Andy Ryan fired Forfar in front in the third minute with a left-foot shot into the roof of the net for his first goal since the teams met last month.
The lead proved short-lived, though, as Cowdenbeath went straight up the other end and Greig Spence ended his six-match goal drought with his 16th goal of the season.
Forfar looked the most threatening in the second half but Ryan struck a post and Gavin Swankie was twice denied by Cowdenbeath goalkeeper Grant Adam.
