Default No Spark from the Distributor?
I don't have any spark from the distributor. Computer, coil, ignition module, have all been replaced. I have spark going into the distributor but none coming out. The truck is a 88 1 ton with a 454. I have also replaced the injectors, fuel pump relay and I have 45 lbs of fuel pressure. When turning over there is no fuel going in but I understand that is because there is no spark. Please give me any suggestions to check I am really puzzled. Thanks

Pick up coil sends the spark signal to the ignition coil. If you have correct spark out of ignition coil the pick up coil is work.
