My trucks fuel pump when out while i was waiting on cash to get a new pump i left my door ajar and the battery went dead 3 ot 4 days later I installed the new fuel pump then realized my battery was dead. Replace my battery and couldn't get it to start (no spark). I replaced the ignition coil distributer cap rotar cap still no spark. Then I just replaced the ignition module chip in the distributer cap turned it over and flames blew out of the carburator.(I think I'm getting spark now..lol but it won't start?? I know flames aren't saposed to shoot out of the carberator but I don't know what to do next is it my firing order?

Your right my firing order was off. I cranked it to line up the mark to the zero on thr crankshaft checked the rotar cap and it was in the the opposite that I had it b4 Instead of 1-3-4-2 it was firing 4-2-1-3. Thanks
