Have you had any diagnostics done? Check you Mass airflow and or map sensors too...after thought. sorry......you can check them with a multi-meter...repair manual will give specifications, so will the dealer......

mileage is up somewhere near 200K Ive had it 3 yrs and only thing that has been replaced on it has been a distributor cap and the intake mani. along with normal tune-ups. once i changed the cap out it ran fine for about 100miles maybe and then just DIED.

Do you have a digital VOM and know how to use it?

Have you checked the fuel pressure regulator yet? If your pressure is not up to par, that could be a major problem. Have you checked on the timing? When you replaced the cap, did you replace the rotor? They work in conjunction with each other...never replace one without the other. A really dumb question here, have you checked fuses for the ignition system yet? On that model, I believe there are 2 ....trying to help, without taking it into a shop... Keep us posted, there is a way around this, just keep us posted, it is doable...... Another dumb question, how does the inside of your tailpipe look? Does it have a lot of "fresh" carbon buildup? If you can take your finger, and rub it around the pipe, and it comes away with a very , and I do mean very, good coating of carbon buildup, it points more to the regualator. Too much gas, not eanough air for the mixture...How do the plugs look? If they also have a lot of carbon....you know where this is going.....

i have the truck parked at my dads. i will try to get by there and check the things you mentioned intexas. im really appreciating all the suggestions guys!

Went and changed out the Distributor and it fixed the problem!
Checked out the Module and it came back good.So replaced the whole thing. So Guessing the Pick-Up Coil went bad?? Anyways, IT WORKS!
