Not sure on yours if the ignition control module is located on the fender, or in the distributor, but that definitely needs to be checked out. Auto Zone could test it once you find it. Also check to make sure the pin on the distributor gear has not sheared off by grabbing the rotor under the distributor cap and see if you can twist it. If you can then the distributor would have to come out and the pin replaced, then the motor re-timed.

before you try the pip, look at the EEC relay on the fuse block, located on the driver's side of the engine compartment. if the blades of the relay are rusted/corroded, and your fuel pump is not coming on, the problem is with the wiring on the bottom side of the fuse block. I had the same problem with my 1993 E150, engine spun, but no spark. After a new fuel pump, a new ICM and a new relay, I finally found the problem, the wires connecting the EEC relay were corroded and not contacting.

Do you hear the fuel pump prime when you turn the key (before you engage the starter)? Faulty fuel pumps are extremely common, luckily they're cheap to replace.

the first comp had 3 blown capacitors on it. Ford most have used a cheap supplier because lots of vans had the same problem. If your soldiering skills are good, you can repair the comp for about $2. the 2nd comp, blew a diode and scorched the board badly, non-repairable.
