The sensor that controls spark. I'm not certain as to whether yours is in the distributor or on the front of the engine. I think its in the distributor but I'm not positive. Crank position sensor. If you want I can dig up the Chiltons step by step process to diagnosing the no spark issue just let me know if you want me to get it. 75% of the answers I post on here are not responded to by the person asking so for me to look it up I need to know that you are going to use it.

I would definitely use it, my 91' ram 350 just did the same thing to me
