Is the truck turning over is the engine cranking..?If it is...then you need to check for spark...Disconect the coil wire from the middle of the distributer,and place it next to a piece of metel,and have someone turn the key to start the truck.If you see a spark then your getting fire,...if you don't then you'll broberly need either a pick up coil or moduale...Good Luck..
