I started my truck the other morning and when i got out it stopped running. I tried to fire it back up and it wouldnt start. I pulled the coil wire off of the distributor and was getting no spark. i have power going to the coil and i put new coils ( my truck has two coils) in and am getting an ohm reading of 10 on one coil and 9.1 on the other both are in range according to my chiltons manual but when i go to fire it up i still have no spark comming out of the coil to the distributor any idea of what it may be?
