My truck started making a clicking noise under the hood sitting at a light and then started missing, I upped the rpms and made it through the light another 20 feet and then it died. I tried to restart it but nothing happenedit backfired one time before a ran the battery dead. I replaced the distibutor cap and rotor button along with the plugs the night before this happened, after it died I replaced the coil and I am getting spark to the plugs but nothing still please help. Thanks greg

When you turn the key to run -do you hear the fuel pump come on? If so check the fuel pressure to make sure its within specs and injectors are pulsing
