Only if its sits it will start
ANSWER: Derrell, this first thing that comes to mind is the ignition coil. If you don't mind throwing money at the truck, replace it. You can test it with multi-meter, or you can take it to your local parts store and if they have someone there who knows what they are doing, they can test it. I hope this helps, Jason. p.s. Let me know what comes of it.

AnswerDerrell, if you have replaced the ignition coil, then you have replaced just about the only thing that I could tell you to do. However, there is a part on your distributor that could cause this. It is called a pick-up coil. They don't usually go out on your year model, but stranger things have happened. I would suggest trying this, but I don't think that they are inexpensive. Good luck, Jason
