This is my plow truck she will turn over but no spark I am not mechanically gifted but can check the obvious. Can someone point me the right direction?

Coil wire in tight? What about the other two leads on top of the coil. I would start removing wires... sand them off and re-install them one at a time. If all else fails the module on the fender wall may be bad. They do go without warning.<br /><br />My plow truck is a 78 Ford and I understand your frustration.

check for 12V at the coil. Check to see if the rotor underneath the cap turns.
