I hope i didnt do a repost on this one. I tried the search but didnt find what i was looking for. So im not getting any spark at the sparkplugs and I get fuel all the way to the TBI but not pass the injectors. i drove my truck 3 days ago and ran fine. Now not so much. Maybe its the ECM? (not sure) Hope some one will help me figure this out. Thank you for your time.

If the ignition module in the distributor is bad, you will have no spark and also your injector's won't spray any fuel.

Also if you end up changing the module, use some heat sink compound between the module and the distributor or you will be replacing it again soon, a lot of the time some compound comes with the module.

change the module, get a GM/ACDelco unit, even if its one from a junkyard, it will last WAY longer then a Chinese POS, ive had them go bad in months.

Yeah I bet they pieces of crap, I have only used AC Delco ones, probably because I keep a ton of TBI part's on hand.
