Injector problem

I have a chevy c1500 with a injector problem. I want to know if the ignition control module on the distributor is what is causing them to not fire because i dont have the money to buy a new distributor for my truck?

That module only controls spark but the pick up coil in the distributor provides the reference signal for both so see if you have spark.

Wrench, The fix was the pick-up coil last week-no spark and no injector pulses-the pick-up coil was open-its gonna come down with a distributor or a used one- unless you go time for the pick-up coil-I don't

This is why I wish they didn't remove the search tool.
