Check the wires to the module,im not too sure what color wire to check,its been 5 years since i worked on that issue on a ford truck,but i think its a white wire with a black stripe-basically power from the key-also check the fusible links by the starter solenoid on the inside fender

No start 1994 ford bronco
The spark problem is first because the computer uses the same signals to control injection Ford used two types of ignition systems #1 closed bowl this has the control module mounted on a heat sink next to the drivers hood hinge and 6 wires coming out of distributor or thick film where the module is mounted on distributor on both systems need to test the pick up coil with a logic probe for cycling voltage ok replace module if not ok replace pick-up coil.

Need to find out if it has a loss of spark or fuel when it dies.
Did you replace the coil because it had a loss of spark? Could be the ignition module. Auto Zones can test those for free.

Or is there a loss of fuel or low fuel pressure. Could be a weak/going out pump or a problem in its circuit.

On a 88 bronco i can not get spark but have 12volts getting to coil, replaced.. coil/cap and rotor/and ignition module
You will need to change the pick up coil that is located in the distibutor. if you have never done something like this you would be better off to let a garage do it, reason you have to pull the distributor out of the engine.

Try replacing the pick-up coil in the distributor.They are notorius for going bad and driving you crazy.

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.
