Well I have a 87 k5 blazer with a 350 tbi, recently we did a tune up, replaced almost all the electrical system on the truck trying to diagnose a spark issue, well we finally fixed that, we drove it for a couple weeks now and its been great, now today while driving today the truck just shut off, then it wouldn't start, i went under the hood, moved things around and it started, drove 10 ft and shut off again, it just cranks and cranks but it will not turn over. Seems like a spark issue again but I am lost on what it could be, any ideas?
 
Get your ignition module tested! It is the black module that all the wiring plugs into on the distributor itself. If it is good, or bad, make sure you re-install using plenty of thermal grease like you'd use for a computer's processor. Heat is the number one killer of ignition modules.
