89 MGM new starter relay now no spark?

[WendyD]

Drove to the store a couple days ago. Came out (less than 5 minutes later) and absolutely no power at all - no lights, no clock, no nothing. After sitting there and trying about 2 dozen times, both in park and in neutral, it started right up like nothing was wrong.

Next morning, same thing. No power, no nothing. Replaced the starter solenoid starter relay. Now I have power back but it won't start. The engine cranks and it's seems like it is getting gas, but just won't fire up. Always started right up on first try until now.

Please help.

If you are sure there is no spark, look to the ignition module on the side of the distributor. These are a known failure item on Ford/Lincoln-Mercury products.
