Either the coil is bad or the ignition control module is bad. You can have them tested at an auto parts store.

Ok then, take the distributor cap off and see if you can turn the rotor while it is in place, this is checking to see if the pin sheared from the distributor gear. The rotor should not turn. This is a common problem with Fords.
