Signs of a bad Ignition Module

The car has new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter. TOday tested the relay by swapping in a new one, no change. I do indeed hear the fuel pump click on. I see spark when I pull a plug wire at the plug, and place it against metal. I also see a spark when putting one of the plugs at the end of the spark plug wires outside of the cylinder head. I smell gas, I am at wits end...I even tried starter fluid, no luck!

Could it be a low flowing pump...I bought a pressure tester, but at $40, I might as well buy a new pump and replace it instead since the tester canteven be returned.

Truck is an 88 Bronco EFI 4.9L, and doesnt start any which way now
