Hi from Vancouver, Canada. I've owned this truck from new,it now has 240,000 kms. on it . I noticed over the last while when turning the key to start it in the dark the headlights would come on momentarily in the key turning process. This may have nothing to do with the problem. The engine stopped dead, no missing, no nothing, like it had been shot.I check that distributor was turning,valves lifting,fuses good, just no spark at plugs or coil.Replaced ignition module, dis. cap and rotor.I removed the coil and checked it by the book, seems ok, there's power in the pink/red wire that feeds it. Tried wiggling the key when starting.
So guys what is my next step,how do I proceed or do I tow it to the experts,
regards, Allan

 

Thanks for all your help......it was a faulty dis. pickup coil
