This pickup was driven over a set of railroad tracks and stopped running. It was a pretty rough ride but nothing crazy. The engine died and has no spark at the plugs. The coil, distributor cap, rotor and ignition module have been changed. The engine turns over fine and everything also on the truck seems to work fine. I can not find any fuses blown under the hood or in the fuse box under the drivers side of the dash. Does this pickup have a tilt switch? Any suggestions? Help!

Hello,

This no spark issue can be to a faulty distributor.
It is possible to have the distributor dislocated due to excessive vibration.
So, check the distributor and make sure it is seated properly and does not have extra play.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
