94 f150 5.0l
I am having trouble, I had the truck running and i ran into the garage to get something and I came out and it was dead and now it won't start. It's no a fuel problem, but I have no spark. Changed plugs and that didn't help. Truck isn't worth much so I don't wanna put out big bucks. Any ideas

Start checking stuff. Since it seems to have just suddenly stopped working my first suspicion would be the ignition module. See if you have power to the coil and check for spark at the coil. If you have power but no spark coming out it's either the pickup in the distributor or the ignition module.

IIRC it's in those trouble shooting steps. It covers the ICM, coil, wires, distributor, PIP sensor, etc. Also you could just visually inspect. Take the cap off and inspect the contacts on the underside of each post and the rotor contact. Unplug your coil so you don't shock yourself and try to turn the engine over to see if the rotor... Well... Rotates. Other than that I don't know.

Speaking of problems, I have black smoke, rough idle on my "94 150 5.o . I suspect the oxygen sensor. I cleaned it and found no improvement. I had a friend who works on nothing but ford suggest, the fuel injectors. Before I tear down the intake system, does anyone have any other suggestions?

Drive like you stole it

If the smoke is only on startup it could be leaky injectors, if it's all the time then you are running rich
