The only other thing I can think of, since it sounds like you checked
everything else, would be low voltage due to a weak battery, bad
connections, or a bad battery cable.  I had a similar problem on my '97.
The battery voltage seemed OK at the coil and it seemed to charge right up
and the problem still existed even with the battery charger connected and
the battery fully charged.  One or two of the cells read a bit low after it
was fully charged.  Once I replaced the battery the problem disappeared.

Good luck.

I had a "no start" problem on my '91 and it turned out to be corroded
wiring that ran under/near the battery.   Repaired the wiring and it's
been fine ever since.

When you do find the cause, let us know.

Good Luck

i got a computer from the junkyard installed it and the truck ran for
about ten mins and stopped with no spark again i checked the fusable
link at the ign and it was ok then i went through all the batt cable
connections and they seemed fine thanks to everyone for the advice so
tomorrow its back to the drawing board
