Won't Start
Hello All, Most of my past posts have been in the Bronco forum, but I thought I'd post this time in the more era correct forum. Hope that's cool. Here's where I'm at. I'm driving on the hi-way in my 78 Bronco 351m 4spd and it cuts out on me for a second, then fine for another mile or so and it starts cuttin out again & died. So I tried to start it, and it just cranked, but not for long, it's as though there was not much batt. power. I had the batt. & starter tested. Turns out my starter was going out & I put a new one on, and it cranks alot better but still won't start. I know the starter isn't why it died but I wanted everyboby to know everything I've tried so far. I've also put on a new voltage regulator, new ignition module, new coil, cap, plugs & wires. Also a new fuel pump & fuel filter. I seem to be getting both fuel & spark, but no fire. So that's where I'm at now & not sure where to go from here. Any advise would be much apprecited. And BTW, this site is fantastic! I can look at this stuff for hours, but right now I can't seem to find a direction to turn. So THANKS in advance, And Keep On, Keepin On!
How would I know if the distributor is bad?

Anybody... 
Here's something else I've found out. When I was checking for spark, I'm not getting any at the plug wire but I am off the coil, But not while cranking , only when I let off the key.
