Having a problem with my truck starting. Sometimes it will start but sometimes it won't. Sometimes it get power to the distributor and sometimes it won't. I have replaced the steering column, distributor, coil, and module. What can be wrong with it?

When you say won't start is that, crank no start, or no crank no start?

A few things come to mind for a no crank condition.
ignition switch
park/neutral safety switch (AT)
clutch safety switch (MT)

Post back. :)
