Exclamation The Sequel - 87 F150 No START

Got some nice advice. Changed the eec, the plugs and 2 plug wire, and the darn thing started straight off the key.

We ran it a while,then my father-in-law switched on the A/C..........the motor stopped dead.
It will not start.

We have power out of the coil into a "brown" resistor, (P2) via a green wire with a yellow tracer, and nothing out of that. The 2 wires (green with yellow trace and A red wire)head towards the distributor module.

Any ideas?

I need to get another resistor too

Doesn't need to be running to check the codes. KOEO test (key on engine off).
