This is my first post and I don't know much about these but I was told it could be because of a bad distributor module or the coil. I tested the distributor and all my fuses and I'm still getting no spark coming from plug wire. Wires are new plugs are good but she won't start. There is also gas getting to the fuel rail so I know it isn't a fuel pump problem.

its your coil

That's what I figured, but when I tested it with the voltmeter it still had power is that usually the case even if has gone bad?

Check the coil first before buying one…..you get a multimeter and check primary and secondary resetance
