well you won't get power through the coil unless the truck is being turned over, so if you checked it with just the key forward you won't have power coming out of it.

 

UPDATE: OK, so I have replaced the coil,ignition module, rotor, distributor cap, and stator. Still my truck will not start up when i crank it.

Anything im missing? or should check?

 

have you checked the timing chain/belt ?? remove oil cap have someone turn it over while you look inside see if valves moving at least that has always been my easy way of checkin to see if my was broke.

 

This is just a guess, but since you've replaced most all the electrical, could it be the computer? Somebody else might be able to tell you if that's feasible or not.

 

Check compression on one or two cylinders, if both are very low suggest removing valve cover to verify camshaft timing. If need help with procedure, don't call us, we'll call you.

 

My brother had a simalar problem with his truck ('96 f150 inline 6). I was just about to give up and have it towed to the dealer, and then I noticed a couple of frayed wires beneth the rotor. I don't recall exactly what it is called, but the sensor is a hall type that I am guessing senses piston & ignition timing. I had to pull the distributor shaft out of the motor to replace it, and then re-time the motor. This cured his problem and he has had no problems since.

P.S. Be sure that if you replace this sensor, that you pay special attention to the routing of the wires. If you don't you will get a 1/2 mile down the road and the crown like rotor will saw through the wires (it might have happened to me) causing the whole problem over again.
