Exclamation 87 bronco 2 wont start

I have a 1987 Bronco 2 i replace the plugs, wires, cap and rotor in the spring. I was recently towing a light trailer and i noticed it was more sluggish than normal. After i unhooked the trailer and tryed to start my bronco it wouldnt fire.
I replaced the coil, still no spark, im thinking it may be the distributor or tfi module, does anyone have any ideas???

There is lots of good information in this thread... i have been fighting an intermittent starting / electrical problem in my 88 for months

check the inertia switch, the TFI (thats a known issue) and all the other things these guys point out.

good luck let me know what you find

Thank you guys for the advise i have checked the tfi and it tested out fine but i talked to a mechanic from a local shop, he said that even if it tests out fine between the posts on the module itself it has to alternate between ol and 12 on an ohm meter on the coil, the tfi is only 31 bucks, gonna give it a shot
