At the cost of the igniter i recommend checking your pickup coil.( The 2 wire sensor in side of your distributor. The The igniter will not allow the coil to fire with out reference form the pickup coil. Coil has primary and secondary resistances. when the primary coil powers up and then pulses off, this cause a high voltage due to magnetic degeneration. Check the coils primary and secondary resitances along with the air gap in the pickup coil, and also check the resitances on the pickup coil. If i am right your igniter will be okay.Get a good manual for you truck, It will save you money down the road.
Toyota does not have at test proseger for the ingiter.

Also check the wires in between the pickup coil and the igniter.
I hope this helped.

I got a 87 toyota pickup 4x4 22r replace distributor cap rotor plugs wires ignitor and coil and it get sparks when it first turns over then stops getting spark

Would need mo info.When does it stop. If it has spark when cranking but not as soon and key comes out of start position you'll need to look at it as an coil power problem. Need to see if it is getting power when Ignition switch is in run position. Since the coil ground is controlled to make spark, there should always be 12 volts to the coil when switch is in run position. Some older cars, the starter solenoid provides power to the coil when cranking and the ignition switch takes over in run position.

No spark at coil or distributor

I would buy a book with the procedure to troubleshoot the ignition system. The problem could be the pickup coil in the bottom of the distributor among other things. The module uses the pickup coil to know when to fire the plugs. The computer only controls when the cylinders fire.

Power to red wire on coil no power to distributor wires

Yes the crank sensor could keep the coil from firing, but your truck does not use a crank sensor assuming its a V8.
The coil gets power from the key switch, and the ignition module inside the distributor grounds the coil to fire it.
So the problem could be the coil, or the module or pickup in the distributor. The pickup coil in the bottom of the distributor acts as a cam and crank sensor.
You may need a repair book or shop manual to get the test procedures.

My toyota corolla was idline fine then just cut off . no spark in distributor

If your engine cranks normally but will not start and cuts off because it has no spark, or it stalls and won't restart because it has no spark, the problem may be due to any of the following:
A bad pickup inside the distributor a stripped distributor drive gear (common problem with plastic distributor drive gears, broken, loose or corroded wires from the pickup to the ignition module or PCM.
If there is power going from the coil to the dist, but no spark coming out of the dist. the Condenser is bad. Small round thing that has a wire that hooks to the points. If the engine has no spark, check for voltage at the coil positive terminal when the ignition key is on.
If there is voltage, the problem is on the trigger side of the coil (pickup, crank sensor, ignition module or primary wiring circuit).
If there is NO voltage at the coil, the problem is on the supply side (the ignition switch or ignition wiring circuit).
If the coil has voltage, the problem may be a bad high voltage output wire from the coil to the distributor, hairline cracks in the coil output tower, or cracks or carbon tracks inside the distributor cap or on the rotor.You can check this with voltmeter.------------------
That's it.
