351 won't start

Hi guys this is my first post here, and I am hoping you can help me out. I have 92 F-150 XLT with the 5.8 liter FI engine. I can't get it to start. Here is what happened. I started it to move it back so I could get our tractor by, and it ran just fine no problems. Then I started it up again to move it back where it was before, which it did just fine. I didn't notice anything different in the way it sounded at all. Then about 30 minutes later I go back out to start it up and all it does is turn over. It tries to fire every now and then but it can't start. I am thinking that the fuel pump is shot???? or it has a plugged fuel line???? I took out the fuse for the fuel pump but it looked fine to me. I don't know what else to do.

Please help. It probably isn't that big of a problem, but I am not that good with engines.

Never mind, Guess it was a distributer problem.
