Have you done any work on the timing or plugs lately? Are you sure the plug wires are on in the correct order? If you replaced the timing chain then your marks could be lined up but you could still be out 180 degrees. The cam makes 2 full turns to 1 on the crank. You will have to take the valve cover off and turn the engine over and be sure that the intake is closing and the exhaust is opening, not the other way around. Check your rotor button and see where it is. If it's not lined up with #1 then you'll have to pull it out and move it?
If it was working and you shut it off and it won't start, then set you time and check the rotor button. If it's off by a tooth or so then chances are its jumped her time and you'll have to replace the chain.
Hope this helps.

My 1985 ford bronco will not fire out of the distributor but it will fire out of the coil

Check the distributor cap for cracks or dirt that can short circuit the spark.
Check the leads and the rotor. if there is spark at the coil then you are loosing it at the distributor or the coil lead.

1984 Ford Bronco II new distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, control module, coil, starter, alternator, carburator, fuel pump. Put new control module on yesterday had spark for a little while, but now no...

Low battery voltage can keep the coil / ignition control from firing. You need a good 12V to get everything working right. Get a full battery charge and try again. It might also be flodded by now.

My 1984 Ford Bronco will not start. What is the problem? I checked the Coil, all the plugs, distributor, fuel pump, carborator. I used starter fluid on the carborator, and it didnt start. The fuel pump...

Well its electrical if your not getting spark.

check the voltage to the coil......if your not getting voltage there nothing will happen

How did you check the coil..perhaps your coil is bad...they are cheap.

Ohm out the coil to see if it test correctly, you cant just take the wire off of it to check for spark..this is not an accurate test


Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sean_54c3a3dc48a7773c

Weak spark + 1988 ford bronco

check the voltage of the b+ terminal of the ignition coil (primary side) with a cheap multimeter while cranking. low voltage to the primary will cause low voltage on the secondary. also recheck all ground paths from the ignition module. ensure good connection from coil to module. note: new parts are not "known good parts" until it runs.--> IG.MOD.
