Question 2.8 no spark problem

I have a 1984 ranger 2.8 4wd with manual trans. The problem is there is no spark comin off the coil. I have replace dist. coil, ignition module, ignition, checked all grounds and looked for any wires that may be groundin out. It started on my way home from work one day. it was like you turned the switch off. had it towed home then the next mornin it started right up and run for about 15 sec then the same thing. you can keep tryin to start it for a while and sometimes it will start and run. then you can go back the next day and nothing. the only other thing i can think of is the computer. it does it if its hot or cold. what do yall think. thanks
